    Hi, everybody--

    I've been busy googling and planning our Butterfly and Hummingbird gardens and I wanted to share this OSU Extension Fact Sheet

    http://ohioline.osu.edu/w-fact/0012.html

    Listing common butterflies for our area, different attractant plants, a list of invasive plants, and some other good info links.

    If you have a butterfly 'fact sheet' from your state's extension (or similar) it may be helpful to others to post it.

    I noticed on the Ohio 'fact sheet' it listed several common butterfly plants that I had no idea were considered 'invasives'. I didn't know that the 'daylily' was an 'invasive', for instance. That surprised me.

    I'm interested to know more about this?!
