The first snow! When the snow is heavy it coats the shade cloth. As it melts it will come through the cloth. If it is too heavy then Gregg will knock if off.
After a snowy first winter it was time to get the house ready for the butterflies. All the plants that are in the butterfly house are used as either host or nectar plants by the butterflies.
We have both perennials and annuals planted in the butterfly house. So the layout changes a little year after year.
Flying Flowers officially opens Mother's Day weekend every year. Visitors are welcome to come throughout the summer and spend some time learning about butterflies and relaxing in the outdoors.
