The Big Butterfly Count Top Tip Number One

In honour of the Big Butterfly Count (Friday 15th July – Sunday 7th August), we are sharing our top tips on how to help the winged insects in your local area.

1. Choose the right plants

Not all types of plants are equally useful to butterflies. It is important to provide plants that are high in nectar, so butterflies can get the nutrients they need. In summer, some great choices are lavender, buddleia and perennial wallflower.
