With many butterfly species, like the monarch, becoming threatened and endangered, it is important that we help provide suitable habitats for them wherever possible - and that includes in your home garden!
Join us virtually as Evan Green, Horticulturist at CalBG, walks us through all things butterflies! Understand the basic biology of butterflies and which species you are most likely to spot in Southern California. Gain insight into how to best use California native plants in your garden to support butterfly populations, which plant species will provide nectar for adult butterflies or food for caterpillars, and how to maintain those plants year round. With time and a little bit of work, watch as your garden transforms into a butterfly hotspot!
