Re: How's your butterfly garden, Ed?
Thanks for asking.
It looks to be a good year.
The Monarchs are already passing through, and I will need a lot more milkweed soon.
I have planted fennel, parsley and dill for Swallowtails.
I am not sure, but I was told Sweet Broom attracts a certain butterfly, so I am exterimenting with some of that.
The salvias are already blooming in many cases, supplying adult nectar.
The turkscaps, lantanas, golden dewdrops, etc. are coming along nicely.
With some luck, it will be a great year.
Is it snowing where you are?
