#207 Planting for Butterflies

posted by Gareth Johnston on August 23, 2010, in postcode 2000

I've just returned from a trip to Europe where I heard that many communities have started to plant nature strips and even whole gardens for native insects especially butterflies - some Australian information is found here http://lepidoptera.butterflyhouse.com.au/sydbuts.html

and here  http://www.soe-townsville.org/external_biodiversity/Gardening_for_Butterflies.html
