Monarch Butterfly Garden

Plant some Milkweed...watch it get devoured by caterpillars & end up with beautiful Monarch Butterflies like this one, taking over your yard.  

Butterfly Garden



I started a butterfly garden in my back yard. So far I have about 4 types showing up.  These are mating Gulf Fritillary...they love the purple passion vine.   That's all you need to plant to have these become frequent visitors in your South Florida yard.

Its so peaceful to go in the back yard with a cup of coffee & watch the butterflies dance around the flowers.

Most enjoyable is my art studio since it faces the back yard. I open the windows and watch the butterflies flutter around the yard as I paint.  

An easy project with beautiful results

Life Changing
