A couple years ago I started a butterfly garden in a quiet corner of my backyard. I love to sit in the shade with the warm sun scattered from the branches of the birch trees. I love to visit the Butterfly Garden Near Me for inspiration. I get plant ideas, learn a little about butterflies and enjoy my day outside. Here is a short list of Butterfly Gardens in the Chicagoland area.
