What’s Fluttering In Your Garden?
May 22nd, 2011 | Posted in Butterfly Gardening, Miscellaneous by Anne Brewer
I’m seeing more and more butterflies in the garden now that the days are consistently warm.
Monarch on Penta lanceolata
Plant passion vine for the Gulf Frittilaries
Passiflora ssp.
I plant passion vine in a container to keep it from wondering into spaces where it is not welcome. It grows and blooms profusely all summer long and into the fall- seems to be very happy couped up in a pot and the frits love it!
The swallowtails love fennel and parsley…
Fennel for the swallowtails
Plant a way station of milkweed for the migrating monarchs…
Asclepias curassavica -Milkweed
Anything fluttering in your garden?
Hoping to have lots of larvae images next post…
