Texas Butterflies & Their Host Plants

  • PHP Urban Ecology Center - Small Classroom 8400 NW Military Hwy San Antonio, TX, 78248 United States (map)

Learn about 5 common butterflies seen in Texas and how you can support their habitat with the plants that are native to Texas and readily available at local nurseries.

In this presentation by Emily Hawthorn, you will learn about the butterfly life cycle and the difference between host and nectar plants. You will also see examples of plants that are native and that can grow at your house. Leave with the knowledge and a plant that will bring butterflies to your front porch.

First 10 people will receive a free native butterfly-attracting plant.

This is a program presented by the Butterfly Learning Center, a chapter project of the Alamo Area Master Naturalists
