The Adair County Garden Club is all aflutter over butterflies

Click on headline for full story with photo

By Barbara Armitage

The Adair County Garden Club hit the open road again last week visiting the Butterfly Habitat at Lost River Cave just outside Bowling Green, KY.

Garden Club members were reminded that butterflies add both beauty and serenity to a garden and that their natural habitats are being destroyed everyday both by deforestation and pesticides.

Butterfly gardening is easy and rewarding. Just by adding a few colorful plants to your landscape you can attract dozens of beautiful butterflies to your gardens. Try planting Bee Balm or Cone Flowers or you can sow a packet of colorful Zinnia or Comos seeds and the results will be amazing.

To learn more about Butterfly Gardening contact the Adair County Garden Club at (270) 250-2979. The Garden Club meets the 4th Thursday of each month at a variety of locations.
