A Butterfly Garden

A garden's precious gifts are not only the beautiful blossoms or delicious produce, but varied creatures venturing inside the garden walls. Yesterday, this visitor to my garden was kind enough to turn and pause for the camera, un-bothered by my presence.

Last fall, I planted purple cone-flower hoping to attract more butterflies to my garden.

Success!
