In this easy-to-use and brightly illustrated introductory guide,
lepidopterist Jaret Daniels shows beginners how to create a haven
for butterflies and other flower-loving wildlife in Florida and
throughout the Deep South. Updated in this second edition with new
photographs and expanded to include additional species of
butterflies, Your Florida Guide to Butterfly Gardening offers a
thorough look at Florida’s most common garden butterflies and the
plants they prefer for food, shelter, and egg laying. It helps you
select plants for a yard where butterflies can live and return year
after year. The book features planting diagrams, simple one-day
container projects, and full garden layouts designed for each of
Florida’s three major growing zones and also suitable for gardens
in neighboring southern states. Full-color images show common
butterflies and their caterpillars, as well as food plants, host
plants, and garden designs. Daniels also discusses current
environmental threats to butterfly species, with a special focus on
the monarch butterfly, describing how humans can play an important
role in sustaining native wildlife populations and promoting
biodiversity through our yards and home gardens.
