 Another visitor to the flowers, the beautiful Pipevine Swallowtail: Don't
eat them,  both the caterpillar and the adult are poisonous. The
caterpillars of the Pipevine Swallowtail feed on the poisonous host plant,
Aristolochia, also known as the pipevine, Dutchman's pipe or birthwort. It
contains the lethal toxin aristolochic acid
