Attracting butterflies and hummingbirds to your yard just got easier. Our butterfly / hummingbird garden is composed of native plant species that butterflies and hummers can’t resist. These hardy native perennials will attract butterflies and hummingbirds throughout the growing season with their succession of blooms. Ornamental prairie grasses are also included to provide support for the flowering plants and for fall and winter interest.
