​​​​​Launch of Butterfly Garden at our "Close to City" home in North Adelaide
- Spring - September 2023
The street verge is beautiful at our "Close to City" home in North Adelaide, South Australia so thought it would be great to make use of this area for this project, beautifying the street for visitors and locals in North Adelaide Precinct whilst being environmentally friendly, educational and increasing the likelihood of butterflies to the City of Adelaide.
We identified native plant species with flowers/foliage that attracts butterflies and bees from the friendly staff at the State Flora Nurseries which is within the Belair National Park. They have an amazing resource there where most of their seedlings are labelled identifying what insects/birds etc the individual seedling attracts.
Then we sourced some fresh soil/mulch and chip bark from the friendly staff at Hawthorn Building and Landscape Supplies to enable preparing the garden bed for the best possible success. If you choose to stay in this "Close to City" self-contained luxury home you will have more information on butterflies available to you in the home. We are hoping children; adults from around Australia and the world who stay with us will be inspired to learn more about the butterfly garden and how they may be able to contribute to their environment as well. Making it a fun and interactive stay which is a little different.
