Program Description

Event Details

A productive butterfly garden does not require a large land area—even a few key plants can make a huge impact. A well-planned butterfly garden should appeal to many different butterflies and cater to both the adults and their larvae (caterpillars). Proper garden design and choice of plants are essential. Such decisions will help influence which butterflies are attracted, remain in the area, and reproduce there.

Presented by Lee County Master Gardener Volunteer Karen Tasman.
