I put in a butterfly garden 3 years ago and im still adding plants. Alot i grew from seed. Coneflowers, swamp milkweed for the monarchs, parsley for the Black Swallowtails. And plenty of zinnias which are one of there favorites. I also raise them once they lay there eggs on the host plants. Im in N.Y.
That sounds really nice. I tried growing Zinnas here. I started them by seed and planted in the wildflower garden. Unfortunately, the slugs enjoyed them before I was able to enjoy their blooms.
