We made a list of plants and they got to help pick out their choices at the garden center. They picked out colorful blooms in deep reds, oranges, pinks, purples, and yellows. <br /><br />We selected mostly perennials that included a butterfly bush, zinnias, daisies, and some asters. We plan on adding lavenders next week. The kids also picked out an LED solar powered butterfly light to add their special touch.<br /><br />We hadn't seen a single butterfly earlier this season, but even as our plants waited on our porch to be put into ground, we began to see some butterflies hover on these.<br /><br />Our location is a sunny spot in the front yard that has a good view from our dinning room as well as the porch swing. We had planted only a few of the plants into the ground when the kids got tired. So we decided to work on it a little bit the next day to finish it. <br /><br />As we have planted them in our garden, we have seen so many butterflies around there. Ever a little hummingbird has been paying a visit! <br /><br />We are all enjoying watching these delicate beauties flutter around. Each time we are in our dinning area we glance out and see some! It has been a very fun and fulfilling project with the kids that we have all enjoyed. <br />Monica Vermahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10414848880242507164noreply@blogger.com
