Anyone in Texas Have Great Butterfly Nectar Plant Seeds ? :-)

16 years ago

Hi Texans,

I am looking for seeds of your best nectar and host plants in your gardens. You see, i am trying to attract butterflies found not in my area of the LRGV (Lower Rio Grande Valley) but are found right outside it. I was wondering what everyone's opoinion was about their best nectar and host plants. If anyone can share some seeds with me for an SASE or SASBE and I can grow them maybe I can attract the butterflies.

The butterflies are:

Eastern Tiger Sallowtail

Two Tailed Swallowtail

Red Spotted Purple

Viceroy

Mourning Cloak

Ruby Spotted Swallowtail

Zebra Swallowtail

Harvester ( I know they feed of aphids but what plant would do good for getting them)

Garcia Tiger Swallowtail

Spicebush Swallowtail

Palamedes Swallowtail

Polydamas Swallowtail

and more.

I am looking for the best nectar and host plants for them.

Here is the link to a page with all the host plants.

Note- It does not list all nectar plants.

Plus I am looking for nectar plants of all over Texas. Same goes for hosts.

Thank-you,

Danny
