For video game, see Butterfly Garden Butterfly gardening is a growing school of gardening , specifically wildlife gardening , that is aimed at creating an environment that attracts butterflies , as well as certain moths , such as those in the Hemaris genus. Butterfly gardening is often aimed at inviting those butterflies and moths to lay eggs as well. Because some plants are not fed upon by adult butterflies, the caterpillar host should also be planted for a bigger population of butterflies. Butterflies typically feed on nectaring flowers, and there are literally hundreds of such plants that may be planted to attract them, depending on the location, time of year, and other factors. In addition to the planting of flowers that feed butterflies, other means of attracting them include constructing ¨butterfly houses¨, providing sand for puddling, water, and other resources or food items, including rotten fruit.

Providing a source of nectar is the primary concern. Butterflies are said to prefer flowers of reds oranges and purples , and large plantings of one variety. This was proven when my long border of chives attracted clouds of painted ladies and red admirals sunrise to sundown. Joe-Pye Weed attracts butterflies The best nectar plants also have the advantage of being tough easy-growing natives; butterfly weed, purple coneflower, black-eyed Susan, liatris, coreopsis, aster and Joe-Pye weed.

Many people believe any combination of flowers constitutes a butterfly garden, but it takes more than pretty blooms to attract butterflies to a garden and keep them there. Butterflies, as everyone knows, begin life as caterpillars (larva). To make a successful butterfly garden you must provide both a food source for caterpillars and a nectar source for the butterflies they become. Providing both makes it possible for butterflies to go through their entire cycle without straying far from home. Florida has about 150 species of butterflies, many of which are rarely seen. Here, in south Florida, swallowtails are our showiest. Majestic black swallowtails are easily enticed into our gardens by growing parsley, dill and fennel as larval food sources. People are sometimes alarmed by the number of young caterpillars munching on one plant, but predators soon cut down on their numbers. Caterpillars are at the bottom of the food chain, and only one out of a hundred Butterfly eggs makes it through the larval stage and into Adulthood. . This one uses pipevine as a larval food source. Growing passionvine will attract Zebra Long Wings , our official state butterfly, as well as

Butterfly Gardening by Rose Franklin February 12, 2001 Butterflies are among the most beautiful insects on earth-and one of the few insects we desire to see in our flower gardens! Their colorful wings add a decorator's touch to our gardens as they flutter from flower to flower in search for nectar. Most gardeners wish to attract more butterflies to their property and thus, butterfly gardening is becoming a popular summer hobby. Attracting butterflies to your garden involves essentially two things: (1) planting the right flowers in the right place, and (2) refraining from the use of chemical insecticides. To attract more species of butterflies, you could add to the butterfly garden a mud puddle, a bowl of rotting fruit, and/or mammal manure. With or without these additional lures, however, many butterflies will be enticed to visit a garden that provides desirable nectar sources which are not poisoned with insecticides. The location of your property plays a role in determining how many butterfly species might visit your garden for flower nectar. Some species of butterflies prefer open areas while others elect to reside near wet meadows or deciduous forests. Thus, a person living in an open rural area, near a stream or swamp, and adjacent to a deciduous forest will likely attract more species of butterflies to his or her garden than will a city dweller.

Butterfly Gardening Information provided by BIRDS-N-GARDEN.COM in Austin, TX Gardening to attract butterflies is easy and rewarding. You will want to provide food for the larval stage of the butterfly life cycle. Nectar plants will keep the adult butterfly feeding in your gardens. Location In a sunny protected area of your grounds. Away from traffic. Not the choice for curb gardening. Out of heavy winds. Butterflies won't stay where they are being blown around. (See ideas about protected islands below.) Leaves and Nectar Use the internet to learn the larval food plants for the butterflies in your area. If caterpillars are quickly destroying a favorite area of your garden, consider buying more of the same plants and relocating the caterpillars to a Larval Zone. Butterflies like open single blooms and double blooms. Create a long growing season of blooms for more viewing during the year. My current backyard abounds with colorful butterflies even though it lacks some of the requirements for successful butterfly gardening. I have a relatively small backyard that gets mowed regularly versus an undisturbed meadow filled with native plants. I live in a windy part of the country but I create wind blocks with a little landscaping know-how. Currently I have too few host plants for the larval stages of development but plenty of nectar producing flowers for my butterflies. There is always room for improvement. How I solved a few problems in my own yard PROBLEM IMPROVEMENT too much wind
