  • Follow me through the butterfly garden as I explain why I still create Butterfly Gardens after 50 years. The real reason Kellie says I am a big child!

    Loved hearing your story from your childhood. What a wonderful gift your dad gave you and now you share it with others. You've inspired me to plant a butterfly garden. Thank you!!

    I'm 75 and still chase butterflies and plan to do so as long as I can

    I’m from NJ also. In the 70’s my mother had us finding milkweed with Monarch eggs. We lived in Freehold at the time. We had an aquarium. It was absolutely wonderful and such a beautiful memory. I’ll never forget how she would walk around with them on her shoulder 😊. I’ve since moved to Alabama. This year I put in a butterfly garden in her memory.

    I want to plant a butterfly garden this year. My garden center says in this area we don't plant enough borage.

    I’ve been wanting to do this forever, I love your garden I grew up in the Bay Area next to the trains would save the butterflies from the street sweepers cause the milkweed would grow along the road , I live in Manteca it may be to hot but I’m going to try ,my goal is to be wild life habitat and butterfly garden certified thanks for the inspiration. !

    Love it...and thank you from Michigan ! I hope to find some caterpillars on my Lindera benzoin next year (Spicebush). Love that shrub. I pruned our Spicebush to look more like a tree...removed lower limbs when it was young. We tagged 41 monarchs this year from our yard in Zone 6 A. Thanks so much for your memories of finding milkweed along the railroad tracks. Great ideas.

    Adding liatris to my garden because of you. I love how it looks with the cone flowers.

    Had some trouble hearing you when you were naming the plants, but enjoyed your enthusiasm and seeing what you had planted. Loved how they are all grouped together -- the natural look.

    Love butterflies and gardens. I have a butterfly garden in my firing yard and wish I had common milkweed. Hard to find around here
