WHY BUTTERFLIES? Beautiful and visible Learning Centre Hands-on experiences on care for Nature A living garden Where we can get close to nature and appreciate its wonders

UNDERSTANDING BUTTERFLIES Food plants for adults High nectar flowering plants Host plants for larvae Specialized plants Popular Misconception: Butterflies destroy plants. Not true. Caterpillars are very picky eaters. They will feed only on leaves of a particular host plants and nothing else.

1. Attract butterflies from the surroundings High nectar flowering plants buffet table 2. Increase population of existing species Plant additional host plants Rear caterpillars/ caterpillars sanctuary 3. Introduce new species Plant new host plants Caterpillars/ plants exchange Green spaces: scenic, but little biodiversity  increased by introduction of insects

86 species feeding Eg. common tiger, green baron, common birdwing, common rose 36 species breeding Eg. lime butterfly, lesser grass blue, yellow palm dart, pea blue Best time to look at butterflies: 9-10 am Unless there is rain :)  weather is not as hot
