Backyard safari butterfly keeper
I think that is what we used. I see it available on amazon.com
@Annie:
We have one! I've been lookin for butterfly weed since last year. Ill be heading to natius
@mpjp0907:
If Natius is out, Warren's on NP generally has it but is usually a bit more expensive. It isn't a very expensive till you start buying it in the quantity my mom requires each year. Lol
@Annie:
Thanks so much for the tip! Where does your mom put hers? I'm wondering since where we live I. Kings mill and all the houses being so close if I put some out back if they'll still come or if I shoulda stick them in the front somewhere
@mpjp0907:
Mom's are scattered all over the backyard. I'm sure she is in a guidebook for Monarchs to find her house! She typically puts the pots out in sunny spots in the backyard and waters carefully to not disturb. Once the plants are filled with munching catepillars, she moves them to her covered patio so she can watch the festivities.
Be careful if you have a cocoon form on a plant that is being actively eaten by other catepillars. They don't tend to mind that their eating habits will put others in jeopardy. That is usually when she uses the butterfly habitat.
Once hatched, the butterflies will enjoy some juicy orange slices.
