 All the caterpillars turned into chrysalises on July 10, and when I returned from a weekend trip on the 19th, all the monarchs except for one had emerged from their chrysalis and were ready for flight.

    Hi Paula,
    I bought the chrysalis box from The Garden Gate in Gulf Breeze. For any of you local readers who haven’t been to the Garden Gate, put it on your “to do” list this week! It’s a real treat to shop there- very knowledgeable and friendly owner and staff, plus beautiful, healthy plants, and charm, charm, charm!!!
