We get a few different ones through the garden. Different butterfly species are attracted to different flowers as adults, and to other specific plants to lay eggs, so it sounds like you need a list!

Looks like you have lots of experience with herbs and veggies. Your site looks yummy. I heard that yellowtail butterflies are attracted to Parsley and that they either eat it or lay their eggs there. I want to attract butterflies to a deck container garden this summer mainly just to admire them. Any suggestions? Hi! Looks like you have lots of experience with herbs and veggies.
