Butterfly Gardens

The birds and the bees ... the butterflies and - the frogs! Weclome to our habitat.

Kids (of all ages!) will be fascinated by the variety of creatures here. Butterflies, dragonflies, mantises and caterpillars abound, and you'll probably start noticing them as soon as you come up the front walk.

Some of the plants here whose flower nectar feeds butterflies:
black-eyed susan, coreopsis, daylilies, mints, lavender, lilac, marigold, Buddleia (butterfly bush), phlox, pink azalea, Echinacea (purple coneflower), clover, mallow, verbena, apple, rosemary

Some trees and plants that support the caterpillars:
fennel, dill, parsley, hackberry, sycamore, chokecherry
