| Welcome Butterflies into Your Garden |
Like animated flowers, butterflies will add colour and motion to your garden.
Plant flowers that have the type of nectar butterflies love.
Butterflies are sun lovers. They like to warm themselves on large flat stones that get morning sun.
Never use pesticides. Chemicals that kill harmful insects will also kill the insects you want to attract.
Keep your garden well sheltered. High winds damage the gossamer wings of butterflies. Tall shrubs provide a windbreak and shelter for other wildlife as well.
Why not build a butterfly house makes a lovely accent. Be sure to place them in sunny spots near flower beds and sheltering shrubs or bushes.
