A butterfly garden should be in an area that is sunny for at least 5-6 hours a day and not in an area where there is much wind. There should be at least a mud puddle or two in your butterfly garden because the mud puddle is where the butterflies would get the nutrients and minerals that they need. A good butterfly garden should have plants that are favored by both butterflies and caterpillars.
Your butterfly garden should have milkweed plants and some plants that are similar to milkweed for the caterpillars to eat. Your butterfly garden also has to have nectar plants so that the butterflies can eat the nectar out of the flower/plant because butterflies cannot chew up their own foods. Your butterfly garden should also be colorful so that it attracts the butterflies.
