I consider that interesting as I am always looking back through and refreshing my memory about host plants ,
My two biggest draws here are Black mustard (Brassica Nigra) Cabbage white and the Singing Nettle Urtica Dioca , Red Admiral and Question Mark ,
when I do get Monarch , Syrica and swamp Milkweed are the cat food choices ,
Moths on a few I will have to refresh my memory about ,

I have a Spicebush , A tulip tree (yellow poplar ) lilac , Two willows, Black cherry ,, Hops tree ) but never seen a cat on any of these Queen anne's lace , fennel , particularly the Green fennel drew a bunch of Black Swallowtail cats one season , Dill occasionally

I guess this means I am favor of a host plant show
In the Butterfly garden if a plant is not chewed up I feel like a failure
