Plant Photo: White Butterfly in Herb Garden

White Butterfly Photo By Aquariann

I was so intent on photographing this small cabbage white butterfly (which at first I thought might be a moth because of its plainly pale wings) that I forgot to look for the plaque that said what kind of plant it was enjoying in the Salisbury Zoo's Memorial Herb Garden last weekend. Does anyone know the type of tiny blossoms?

How To Plant Your Own Post for Flower Friday:
The only rule to play is that you can only add one link per week! The post doesn't even have to mention flowers, but only ones that do will be eligible for being picked as a feature next week. I will be sharing my flower image on other blog hops, namely Wordless Wednesday, and welcome all family-friendly links from fellow bloggers. Crafters can even link up an Etsy listing or other shop product! But if you want to promote a prize, I suggest adding it to my Giveaway Chest Linky instead to entice more treasure hunters.

Please follow my blog through any of the social media icons in the upper right sidebar to receive a reminder to return next week. Adding my button or a text link to your own blog and sharing to your followers is also a fairy appreciated way to help my hop grow.

Other flower hops where I've planted my post this week include Floral Friday Fotos, I Heart Macro, Saturday Show Off and Today's Flower.

    Beautiful photo. I love how translucent the butterfly wings are. The plant looks a lot like the peppermint I have growing in my garden. It certainly is a mint of some kind.

EDIT: Giveaway is officially over! Congratulations to the randomly chosen 108th commenter, Andalene! Accessorize an outfit and rejuvenate your spirit at the same time! Michelle of WireQueen is bequeathing a beautiful pair of clear quartz earrings to one of my readers. The design is named "Midwife Healer" in honor of the midwife that delivered her second daughter.

Michelle believes that the Creator gave to all things a purpose, including gemstones. She covers as little of the "face" of the stone as possible, but still secures it safely in its setting.
