Butterfly Garden
The Butterfly Garden is on the migratory path of the Monarch butterfly, as is the entire state of New York. The tiny, lilac-colored flowers of Buddleia shrubs, also known as Butterfly Bushes, are irresistable to the Monarchs as a source of sweet, nourishing nectar, and as a perfect location for laying the eggs which will hatch into larvae, and eventually become new Monarch butterflies! The Butterfly Garden bustles with winged, nectar-feeding creatures of all kinds throughout the summer.
