I have had this book for a year and I am always pulling it back out to help purchase butterfly plants and to ID catipillers and butterflys. Lots of excellent pictures of every stage of each Florida butterfly. Excellent lists of plants, both host and nectar. Great pictures of the plants. The only thing I have found missing is any info on when to expect the butterfly's in your garden.
This is a wonderful book for anyone interested in buuterfly gardening. Lots of helpful practical information. This book was recommended to me by Zane Greathouse who owns Greathouse Butterfly Farm.
I am just starting butterfly gardening and I found so much helpful information. On the other hand, my sister has been butterfly gardening for years, and still found the book helpful. It makes identification of butterflies and caterpillars easy and has many lavish illustrations of both the butterflies and the plants that attract them.
I really enjoyed this book, it has great pictures of the butterflies, caterpillars and plants, and lots of interesting information and details. Its also been very handy in planning my garden and to check on the species we see.
This is the best book I have purchased for butterfys. It has great pictures of the butterflys as well as the caterpillars.It gives you all the information needed to get your own butterfly garden set up.
Excellent book. I knew what I was getting as I had seen a copy already. Excellent pictures and great verbiage to back it up. Really helps in understanding the topic.
This book has been a wonderful learning tool and resource for attracting butterflies in our own backyard here in FL. We've been able to learn what plants different butterflies prefer to attract them to our yard. Not only do the plants draw in butterflies, and even hummingbirds now and then, but they are also beautiful to look at for us too. It's so nice to sit outside together and watch all kinds of butterflies fly through the woods and from plant to plant. So relaxing!
This book has been extremely helpful in developing my butterfly garden. The photos are great and make it possible to identify eggs and caterpillars as well as the butterflys.
