Planting For Butterflies
If you have a sunny yard, protected from high winds, you can plant flowers to attract butterflies to you garden.
Butterflies look for colourful, fragrant plants in their search for nectar. They seem to be particularly attracted to purple, lavender, and pink, and flowers with heavy perfumes.
