BUTTERFLY GARDENS
Unlike rain gardens, which are usually situated in lower areas of landscapes, Butterfly Gardens make a great application for utilizing the rainwater stored in your rain barrel(s). Not only do they add color and life to your landscape, they support the life cycle of pollinators and other beneficial garden insects.
SIMPLE PLANNING TO PREVENT COMMON PROBLEMS
1. Choosing an area that already contains appropriate soil will significantly reduce the labor needed to prepare the soil.
2. If you already have a low spot in your yard, you can simply direct your roof runoff to this area and plant a few rain garden plants.
3. Avoid planting your rain garden in an area that has poor drainage to begin with. The soils present in these areas are most likely clay and will not absorb the water quickly enough for a functioning rain garden.
