Butterfly Gardening
Attracting butterflies is as simple as growing the right plants in your garden. Don't worry if your garden is just a patio or porch, you can still get butterflies to visit with a little bit of patience.
Butterflies drink nectar from flowers, and caterpillars eat the leaves, stems, and flowers from specific plants.
Some people think that a butterfly garden won't be attractive, but that is completely not true. Some of the flowers that butterflies love most are also very beautiful, and many caterpillar host plants are unique and attractive.
Plant with your own needs in mind. Do you want a hedge or a flower bed? Do you need to keep everything in containers?
