How do I attract butterflies

I am a novice gardener with only a small back yard and small flower bed at my disposal. I have heard in the media that butterflies are under threat in the UK. I would be grateful of advice as to which plants I should grow to help sustain our butterfly population. I suggest you find out which species are seriously threatened and known to still occur near you; then plant whatever it is they feed on. It seems to me that it is more useful to specifically encourage the species most at risk. After all, cabbage whites are butterflies yet are hardly threatened! -- Rodger Whitlock Victoria, British Columbia, Canada [change "atlantic" to "pacific" and "invalid" to "net" to reply by email] |
