Butterflies remain the most attractive of insect species and possess bright coloration, patterns, and important pollination for healthy plant growth. When developing butterfly gardens, it is important to plan carefully to provide insects with the sustenance and shelter required for optimum growth. Landscaping measures will have to be put in place to ensure that the most attractive gardens are created.
The plan for your garden will depend on whether you wish to attract a few insects to the area or whether you wish to develop a complete habitat for different butterflies from caterpillars to its stage of metamorphoses. The first step is to determine the layout of your flower beds and to take the level of maintenance into consideration to ensure that sufficient growth and shelter are provided all year round. Choosing the right flow species is imperative to ensure that optimum growth is facilitated and food made available for all insects.
Choose a site where the garden will be located that should include sufficient amounts of sunlight for the healthy growth of plants. It is important to consider the planting of shrubs and hedges that will provide shelter for the insects in cases of strong wind and rain including the laying of eggs and cocoons. Selecting the right types of plants will offer food to the butterflies encouraging growth and having these critters return to the garden time and again.
All flowers must be rich in nectar and attract different butterfly species to that garden. These flowers can be bought from a nursery and are often labeled as providing nectar as a source of food. Careful consideration should be made for the plants that will sustain the life cycle of caterpillars and ensure that the entire colony is sustained over a long period of time.
The careful selection of flowers and vegetation must be taken into consideration to ensure that all insects are sustained. The correct plant choices will provide support for butterflies when it comes to laying eggs on leaves and the provision of a self sustaining habitat. One can take the time to visit a nursery to determine the types of plants most suitable for such requirements.
The location of the garden is important and requires sufficient space and soil conditions to facilitate healthy plant growth. A variety of plants should be selected and the landscape designed to offer sun, shelter, and access to water during dry summer periods. Consider the correct placement of trees and shrubs that will provide maximum protection against harsh winds and rains.
It is important to determine whether sufficient amounts of sunlight are provided for the garden including the facilitation of growth for all plants. Butterflies are cold blooded and will be required to expose themselves to heat in order to function through the day. With the creation of an environment that replicates the wild, you will soon have a garden filled with butterflies.
Planning ahead is important to ensure that the correct location and plant species are selected. Consulting with staff at a nursery can aid in making the best possible choices. Once you have combined the necessary food and shelter, you will develop an attractive habitat to sustain the growth of butterflies.
