It seems it's a host plant for Luna moths.

Do you ever have have them around your outside lights?

threecollie said...: Jan, it is typical of a mature shagbark. There are other kinds that are not as shaggy, nor are the young trees. For some reason I love them..

Linda, I just love them!

Cathy, I have never seen one here on the farm, although we do see them at camp sometimes. Wish we did have them...they are so beautiful..; 7:22 AM
