As it happened

Beautiful B.....D

Not B for Beautiful Butterfly but B for little B.....D. The Cycad blue butterfly is in fact a pest, the caterpillars of the Blue butterfly is the only one that feeds on Cycads, and was first recorded on the island of Mauritius in 2000 and caused the death of many cycad plants there. This is the third time my Cycad try to grow new shoots, let's hope it survive the attack this time as it is more that 40 years old and would hate to lose it.
