By choosing plants that attract butterflies, we can create gardens that are vibrant, aesthetically pleasing and also support the health and vitality of our local ecosystem. When choosing plants to attract butterflies to your garden, it's best to choose a variety of plants that bloom at different times throughout the year to provide a continuous food source. In addition plants that also provide additional benefits such as shelter and habitat would be optimal!
