Butterfly plants are an absolute must for the conscientious gardener. If you want to see more pollinators and increase your gardening yields this year, you absolutely need one (or more) of these plants in the yard.
TN Nursery ships pollinator plants year-round to all 50 US states. Whether you're looking for milkweed or want a local/native cultivar, we stock a variety of plants for& you and your pollinators.
Why Butterfly Plants Are More Than Just For Show
We often think of these types of plants as just flowers for butterflies. But many of these plants feed more than monarchs — TN Nursery's cultivars support a host of other pollinators.
For example, pollinator insects like wasps, flies, and bees just love our plants for butterflies. A few of our varieties attract pollinator birds like hummingbirds, while others draw unlikely pollinators like beetles, moths, and lizards.
Pollinator plants are also much more than food. Gardens with a healthy ratio of pollinators typically struggle with fewer pest insects. The harvester butterfly, for one, loves to eat wool aphids.
The more biodiversity you have in your yard, the healthier your soil becomes. This increases the resilience of your plants and reduces your risk for disease. Pollinator plants have a direct impact on your garden's fruits and vegetables. You don't have to raise honey bees to reap the benefits: attracting the right insects can help to boost overall yields.
Best of all, TN Nursery's plants for butterflies come with a full one-year guarantee. If your plants fail to grow during the first 365 days, we'll refund your order 100%.
Picking The Right Plants For Your Yard
Butterflies certainly won't be picky about the flowering plants in our collection. But depending on the outcomes you want from your project, you may need to evaluate our species up-front.
You may want to consider:
1. Milkweed for attracting Monarchs. You can expect to see caterpillars in March or April.
2. Oxeye daisies for perennial planting beds. We stock low-maintenance cultivars for the busy gardener.
3. Foam flowers for long-lasting ground cover. These are also great plants for crowding out weeds.
Keep in mind we stock many other species. No matter your hardiness zone or project requirements, there's something in our greenhouse to meet your needs.
