A contemporary guide to growing plants to attract butterflies
Butterflies are brilliant pollinators and add vibrancy and color to the garden. A summer''s day wouldn''t be the same without the gentle fluttering of delicate wings. They connect us with living and breathing nature and are an essential part of a dynamic ecosystem.

No matter how small or large your space – from a window ledge in the city to a country garden – Jane Moore offers advice on the nectar-rich blooms to grow, and when and where to plant them.
This charmingly illustrated, practical guide will set your garden aflutter.
