Crown Flower Plant

My puny crown flower plant has its first caterpillars!

 Unfortunately, I think I don't have enough leaves to feed all of them.

Kay of Musings: Wow! I never see caterpillars on any of the crown flower plants on my side of the island.

I got my plant from the swap meet. It had one stem and got really tall and then it died. I was so surprised when four stems sprouted. The caterpillars are ravaging the plant. Hardly any leaves left now. But I'm hopeful that it'll make a comeback again.
