The Hummingbird and Butterfly Garden at Boyce Thompson Arboretum is fluttering with life right now! Thanks to the humidity, we have a ton of beautiful butterflies gracing our garden. Come see the vibrant colors of Pipevine Swallowtail, Orange Sulphur, Cloudless Sulphur, Southern Dogface, American Snout, Painted Lady, Queen Butterflies, and more! We`re hopeful that they`ll stick around for the next two weeks. Don`t miss this incredible opportunity to witness the magic of nature up close!
