Plenty of Zebras

In the corner of the new garden, is a tangled bed of a flowering bush called as Blue Chitrak - Plumbago articulata. A native of South Africa ,the blue chitrak is a common garden plant .

 I had often seen the wild cousin of the blue chitrak , our very own white chitrak , Plumbago zeylanica , in the wild and sometimes around neglected hedges around city banglows .

The pretty butterflies are Zebra Blues , these too, I had seen plenty of times on the outskirts of the city .

What I had not bothered to do was to look up the books . Had I done that , I would not have been surprised to find a nice big bunch of zebra blues hanging around the Plumbago.

It's their host plant,shouts Wikipedia !

But then ,is not observing nature , be it in the jungles or in the garden , all about such wonderful surprises ?
