Due to continued habitat loss and widespread use of pesticides and herbicides, many of our native butterflies need whatever assistance we can provide them. This can be as simple as choosing native or nectar-rich flowers for the planters on an apartment balcony or as complicated as managing a parcel of land as a natural meadow.
Planning and planting your garden with our winged friends in mind is both important for their continued survival and rewarding for you, as you will learn when diverse and colorful butterflies you may never have seen begin to discover the banquet you have provided for them.
