Description: Who doesn’t want more butterflies in their garden? In this class we will discuss all the ways to bring the magic of butterflies to your home. By learning what different butterflies need, we can create a buffet of host and nectar plants throughout the year, to encourage them to stop and stay awhile. Learn tried and true combinations to ensure you will be their next visit.
