Butterflies and Moths

DID YOU KNOW?

Butterflies taste with their feet. They can be found on the patio visiting the Lantana, Verbena or sunning themselves on the arborvitae.

Butterflies and moths belong to the same order of insects (Lepidopteran), however, moths outnumber butterflies by a 9-1 ratio.

If you are interested in taking a closer look at the unseen life that surrounds us at home, order your copy of Patio Life.

If you plant it – they will come!
