Walk through the Gardens with Lori and find just where she looks for butterflies. Practice identifying butterflies in the wild and in flight, while learning to identify many common local species. We will look at the daily habits and haunts of various butterflies and their preferred host plants. The class will finish with tips on how to develop your own garden to encourage more of these important pollinators. Information/registration: 919-668-1707 or gardenseducation@duke.edu.
