What type of BUTTERFLIES are you trying to attract?

I’m trying to attract monarch and swallowtail butterflies. In 2022, I planted 40 feet in front of my home of host and nectar plants. I raised and released 23 monarchs from eggs off my milkweed plants in 2022 and 19 in 2023. I really hope to add swallowtail to my butterfly gardens next year.

What NECTAR and HOST plants are in your garden?

Variety of milkweed, parsley, joe pye, cardinal flower, zinnia, butterfly bush, goldenrod and several others.
