Outdoor Butterfly Garden

 

Outdoor Butterfly Gardens

Our outdoor gardens are specifically designed to attract butterflies at all stages of their lives. Shrubs, trees and grand colors provide shelter for chrysalids and roosting adults. Host plants, such as dill and maximilian sunflower provide egg-laying sites. And, of course, our colorful flowers are a nectar source for local butterflies from May - October.

Our gardens also contain primarily sun- and drought-tolerant perennials that are perfect for Colorado's climate!
