Bronze fennel, an airy, soft perennial in my zone 7 garden is host to larvae of the black swallowtail butterfly. This licorice or anise flavored herb is edible to humans and caterpillar alike. The plant recovers quickly from any pruning the striped caterpillars do.

Raised in Southern Maryland, Rebecca has an innate love of the rural environment, and her macro and landscape photography brings that emotion to life. Living within a stone's throw of the Chesapeake Bay has allowed Rebecca to add intimate views of Calvert County's natural resources to her portfolio, along with her vision of the impermanence of life, the beautiful rust which transforms nature and object alike.
