How to Create a Butterfly Garden with Perennial Flowers

Choose a sunny spot for your garden and select a variety of perennial flowers like coneflowers, milkweed, and butterfly bush.

Prepare the soil by adding compost and ensure good drainage. Plant flowers in clusters to attract butterflies and provide nectar sources.

Include host plants like dill and parsley for caterpillars. Avoid pesticides to protect butterflies and their larvae in your garden.

Add a water source like a shallow dish with rocks for butterflies to drink from. Place colorful stones for basking spots in the sun.

Maintain your garden by deadheading flowers, removing weeds, and providing fresh water. Consider adding a butterfly house for shelter.

Enjoy watching butterflies flutter around your garden. Remember to take photos and share your butterfly garden with others online.
