I need to find a book that will help us identify the types of butterflies that are hanging around our plants. We are seeing more and more different butterflies than we ever had. I have planted coneflowers, tall garden phlox, some petunias, some verbena, rudbeckias, as well as a lot of other cottage style gardening plants. Any suggestions for a good butterfly book that shows colored pictures of various varieties of butterflies? When one of the neighbor ladies move in about 3 or 4 yrs. ago, we "just had to have a butterfly bush!" She isn't home long enough to know if her bush atracts butterflies or not and not that observant when she is home..Duh! She says she keeps seeing them all over in my flowerbeds flying about. Hey,what can I say?
