The caterpillars are swallowtails, they are almost extinct in the UK where they only feed on milk parsley. Here in France we grow borders of fennel to attract them and our neighbour who gets them on his carrots brings them over to us. The beautiful butterflies live for about a month - we have a film of them on Pavlovafowl. Your peppers look great and overwintering them is the way to go last year's overwintered Jalapenos plant produced earlier and doubled the crop. Bon appétit from Normandie!

The peppers look amazing, they also look like hot ones : ) Oh, I think the caterpillars on the dill only eat dill, a lot of them are like that.
