Lots of unusual and hard to find native and adaptive plants aimed specifically at butterflies. We're offering something that's never found at plant sales/nurseries -- native milkweeds. We've got three of the most widespread ones found here in north Texas -- Green Milkweed (Asclepias viridis), Antelope Horns (Asclepias asperula) and Side-Cluster Milkweed (Asclepias oenotheroides), as well as several others. More details can be found at http://www.texasdiscoverygardens.org
