    I have a very aggressive vine growing in my yard (in RI) that I think is Dutchmans Pipe. I've been told that this plant is an important source for for Swallowtail butterflies. Can you confirm if this is Dutchmans Pipe and how I can try to manage it? It's taking over!

    Answer

    Dear mjfoley, I can't help you confirm the identification of the vine/liana because there is no image attached to your post. If you are having trouble uploading images, feel free to email them to me at ahaines[at]newenglandwild.org and I can try to help identify your mystery plant.
