- [Hunt and Peck's](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2026/08/09/hunt-and-pecks/) - One of our participants captured this lovely shot of a Peck’s skipper (Polites peckius) during last weekend’s Bioblitz. This perky pollinator can be found in fields, lawns and other open areas from spring through autumn, and its rapid, ‘skipping’ flight pattern can make it challenging to photograph! Like other members of its family, it rests
- [Wild and Woolly](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2026/07/19/wild-and-woolly-2/) - What’s that tall, slightly shaggy lilac perennial that’s currently being mobbed by pollinators? The tubular blooms of wild bergamot (Monarda fistulosa) are a veritable magnet for long-tongued bees, butterflies, moths and hummingbirds. In fact, bees prefer it to its relative, scarlet bee balm (Monarda didyma). Bees can’t see the color red, but the light purple
- [A Rose by Any Other Name...](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2026/06/28/a-rose-by-any-other-name/) - What’s that lovely vanilla fragrance you’re smelling? Chances are it’s coming from the rosy-pink flowers of rose milkweed, AKA swamp milkweed (Asclepias incarnata). Like other members of the Asclepias genus, this milkweed is often used by monarch butterflies as a host plant. Its fragrant blooms last for about a month in mid-summer, offering pollen and
- [Let's Hear it for the Boys](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2026/06/21/lets-hear-it-for-the-boys-2/) - It’s easy to joke about how male bees are only good for one thing. But on this Father’s Day, let’s take a closer look at how and why these fellows are an essential part of our ecosystem! My Bee , My Choice: Because bees are haploid organisms (having only one set of chromosomes), bee moms
- [Follow the Sun](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2026/06/07/follow-the-sun/) - What’s happening here? Many visitors to the SBG have expressed curiosity about our latest project. Answer: Sunflower house! The SBG is home to many native Helianthus species, which are considered keystone plants–those that support a large percentage of food webs. The nectar and pollen they provide attract and sustain many types of bees, wasps, beetles
- [Meadow Management](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2026/05/24/meadow-management/) - Visitors to the SBG may have noticed that the meadow backing our demonstration gardens was mowed this spring. Not to worry–it’s all part of the plan. Through the efforts of local organizations such as the Clearwater Conservancy, many in central PA are familiar with the importance of wetland restoration. But did you know: Like wetlands,
- [Versatile Viburnum](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2026/05/17/versatile-viburnum/) - Need a versatile native shrub with excellent year-round interest? Viburnum lentago, AKA nannyberry or blackhaw viburnum, features showy white flowers in May, followed by burgundy leaf color and dark blue berries in autumn. These berries are a welcome late season food source for birds and mammals (including, according to folklore, nanny goats!) This large upright
- [Flowers for Mom](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2026/05/10/flowers-for-mom/) - It’s Mother’s Day, and traditionally, that means flowers! Hopefully, you’re shopping locally for your plants and cut flowers, but the chilly, unpredictable spring weather we've had has been a challenge for gardeners and nurseries alike. This is where native plants really shine! No need to baby them–give them a suitable location and enough moisture, and
- [World Wide Webs](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2026/05/03/world-wide-webs/) - Those silken webs we spot in trees such as black cherry can be a cause for alarm for gardeners. But never fear: In spring, these webs are the sign of native eastern tent caterpillars (Malacosoma americanum),who are an essential part of another, very important web–the food web! Our native black cherry (Prunus serotina) is a
- [Rue the Day](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2026/04/26/rue-the-day/) - The delicate, pinkish blossoms of rue anemone (Thalictrum thalictroides) are among the earliest woodland flowers to appear in spring. Found on wooded slopes and ridges in nature, this member of the buttercup family (Ranunculaceae) can be found in the SBG’s Woodland garden. It’s one of several spring ephemerals that relies on ants for seed dispersal
- [Pollinating Pest Controller](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2026/04/19/pollinating-pest-controller/) - This paper wasp (Polistes spp) is enjoying the native Virginia bluebells as much as we do! The wasp pictured is likely a “foundress”-- a fertilized female who overwintered and has recently emerged to start a new colony. While many people still fear the sight of Polistes’ beautifully crafted paper nests, social wasps such as these
- [Weed it and Reap](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2026/04/12/weed-it-and-reap/) - Any of these faces look familiar? Chances are, if you’re a gardener, you’re well-acquainted with most of them! Early season ‘weeds’ are popping up everywhere, and while many offer a springtime food source for pollinators, introduced species such as those pictured have the potential to become problematic. For example, hairy bittercress (Cardamine hirsuta) has seeds
- [Spring Treat](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2026/03/29/spring-treat/) - Although the recent weather whiplash may make you wonder whether spring is really on its way, just look up! The blossoming of red maples (Acer rubrum) is a sure but often overlooked sign that warmer days will soon be here. Beloved by humans for their brilliant fall foliage and attractive, regular growth habit, their blossoms
- [Have Some (Syca)more](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2026/03/08/have-some-sycamore/) - Have you noticed a deciduous tree that seems to have forgotten to put away its Christmas decorations? The seed balls of our native American sycamore (Platanus occidentalis) are textured brown balls found hanging singly on a long stem. (The nonnative hybrid London plane tree (Plantanus acerifolia) has seed balls which usually hang in twos or
- [Feed the Birds?](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2026/03/01/feed-the-birds-3/) - We know that native plants are the best source of winter food for birds–both the seeds and berries they produce, and the insects that they host. But many of us don’t have a mature landscape that can fully sustain a population–or, we just enjoy watching the feathered friends that flock to our feeders in winter.
- [Winter Sowing](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2026/02/01/winter-sowing/) - Even in frigid weather, Mother Nature is taking care of business. Did you know that some seeds, like those of many native plants, actually need a period of cold temperatures to jump-start their growth ? Naturally occuring freeze-thaw cycles help break open the seed’s coat and improve germination (stratification). We can get a jump-start on
- [](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2026/02/22/4339/) - It seems almost unbelievable on a frigid winter’s day, but some butterflies in central PA endure the winter as adults. The mourning cloak butterfly (Nymphalis antiopa) tucks itself away in crevices, underneath loose tree bark, or even in unheated buildings. For this reason, it is one of the earliest butterflies seen in the spring—and may
- [We Heart Solidago](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2026/02/15/we-heart-solidago/) - What’s the buzz? Recently, we were excited to read the results of Mt Cuba Center's latest native plant trial. The goldenrod (Solidago) trial evaluated 70 cultivars and species over a period of 3 years, revealing that these natives are highly adaptable, ornamental, and essential for supporting pollinators. Contrary to popular belief, the trials showed that
- [The Very Secret Caterpillar](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2026/02/08/the-very-secret-caterpillar/) - Many insects successfully pass the winter as immature larvae. The great spangled fritillary (Speyeria cybele) spends the winter as a tiny caterpillar, hidden in leaf litter. The female lays her eggs around the base of her host plant, native violets, in the fall. The caterpillar will emerge soon after, but instead of feeding, it enters
- [Delayed Journey](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2026/01/18/delayed-journey/) - In December 2025, the Associated Press reported that the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) moved the monarch butterfly’s Endangered Species Act rulemaking from the “proposed rule stage” to “long-term action”. What does this mean for monarchs? According to Monarch Joint Venture, the formal push to protect the monarch butterfly under the Endangered Species Act
- [Are You Sleeping?](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2026/01/25/are-you-sleeping/) - Most of us are familiar with the story of the monarch butterfly’s epic journey to Mexico each fall. But what about the more than 30 other species of lepidoptera that call the SBG home? Amazingly, butterflies could be present in our gardens and yards—in some stage of their life cycle—all winter long. For example, banded
- [New Year, New Leaf?](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2025/01/05/new-year-new-leaf/) - For many, the New Year offers a time of reflection and a chance to turn over a new leaf, and gardeners are no exception. But trying something new in the garden doesn’t have to mean buying all the latest hybrids! Instead, just changing the way we think about our garden can produce surprising results. For
- [A Gift that Keeps on Giving](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2025/12/28/a-gift-that-keeps-on-giving/) - After the holidays, don’t be in a hurry to haul your Christmas tree to the curb for disposal–instead, allow it to become a gift that keeps on giving throughout the year. First, be sure to remove all decorations, tinsel, etc. Your tree can be used to start a brush pile in an out-of-the-way corner, providing
- [There's a New Tag in Town](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2025/12/14/theres-a-new-tag-in-town/) - For the first time, scientists are able to track the migration of monarch butterflies across much of North America in real time, actively monitoring individual insects on their journeys–all the way from Canada to their overwintering colonies in central Mexico. Now, researchers are learning that the monarch migration is even more epic than previously thought.
- [Holly Jolly](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2025/12/21/holly-jolly/) - Nothing stands out in the winter landscape like a branch of glossy green holly with bright red berries. Ilex is a large and diverse family, with over 400 different species. Ilex opaca (American holly) and Ilex verticillata (winterberry) are two that are native to Pennsylvania. But did you know that most hollies rely on pollinators
- [Deck the Halls...with Native Plants](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2025/12/07/deck-the-halls-with-native-plants/) - Poinsettias and Christmas cactus are lovely seasonal decorations that many homes wouldn’t be without at this time of year. But how about ‘growing your own’ holiday decor? Native plants can bring a festive vibe to your home while providing ecosystem benefits at the same time. The bright red berries of winterberry (Ilex verticillata) and vibrant
- [Give Thanks for Pollinators](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2025/11/23/give-thanks-for-pollinators/) - Love pumpkin pie? Thank a squash bee! Our native cucurbits, pumpkin and squash, rely on native squash bees for pollination. Ground-nesting, solitary squash bees (two different genera: Peponapis and Xenoglossa) look a bit like honey bees, but they’re hairier and slightly smaller. The hard- working single moms make a foot-long, pencil-thin tunnel in the soil
- [Can't Let Go](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2025/11/30/cant-let-go/) - Although autumn leaves have mostly fallen by this time of year, you may have noticed that a few are still hanging on–especially on our native oak trees (Quercus spp). As with so many things, there’s actually a word for that! Leaf marcescence is the term for the tendency of certain trees (notably oak, beech and
- [Autumn Display](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2025/11/16/autumn-display/) - Not to be confused with its more well-known cousin, St John’s wort, shrubby St John’s wort (Hypericum prolificum) is one of over 400 species of Hypericum. In summer, this absolute ‘bee magnet’ has a compact, mounding habit, dark green leaves, and bright yellow flowers. (The species name prolificum is a clue to the appearance of
- [Brush Up Your Habitat](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2025/11/09/brush-up-your-habitat/) - It might be November, but the gardeners of the SBG have been hard at work on a number of tasks, including refreshing the brush fence in the Backyard Bird Habitat. A brush fence, or dead hedge, is a simple structure made from limbs and branches. It’s easy to build, using materials that might otherwise go
- [Digging In](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2025/11/02/digging-in/) - Colder temperatures make us all feel the need for cozy winter quarters–even if you’re a bee! And the beautiful bicolored sweat bee (Agapostemon virescens) is no exception. This easily recognizable bee sports a vibrant green metallic head and thorax, set off by a contrasting striped abdomen (black and yellow for males, or black and white
- [Autumn Bounty](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2025/10/26/autumn-bounty/) - As the leaves fall and temperatures plummet, the daisy-like flowers of frost aster (Symphotrichum pilosum) keep going strong. These tiny blooms are packed with pollen and nectar, extending the period of floral resources for up to six weeks. The common name pilosum derives from the tiny white hairs that give frost aster’s stems and leaves
- [Feelin' Sassy](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2025/10/19/feelin-sassy/) - Sassafras: It’s fun to say and even more fun to grow, and it’s one of our favorite trees in the SBG’s Woodland Garden! What makes this tree recognizable to almost anyone is its unique foliage. The leaf shape is variable (heterophyllous) and broken into three patterns, all of which can show up on the same
- [Leave the Leaves](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2025/10/12/leave-the-leaves/) - With the arrival of cooler temperatures, curbside leaf collection is underway in many parts of the Centre region. Homeowners and landscapers diligently blow, rake or bag every stray particle of foliage, as has been the neighborhood norm for years. But savvy gardeners eschew this convenience, because they know that fallen leaves are garden gold. “Leave
- [Go for the Gold](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2025/10/09/go-for-the-gold/) - As we transition to autumn, many gardens take on a more muted palette, and goldenrod provides a welcome pop of vivid color. Although it’s often scorned as a weedy, invasive “ditch” plant, there are myriad native Solidago species that are more than deserving of a place in the garden! All species of goldenrod have an
- [Tag, You're It!](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2025/09/28/tag-youre-it/) - It was a beautiful day for The Magic of Monarch Migration at the SBG last Saturday. In partnership with Monarch Watch, skilled volunteers carefully netted and tagged 14 monarchs in the garden. According to Monarch Watch, about 300,000 tags are distributed to participants each year during migration. Why tag? There’s still so much to learn
- [Monarch Migration 2025](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2025/09/07/monarch-migration-2025/) - The 2025 monarch migration has begun, with observers in Minnesota and Michigan reporting relatively high numbers compared to recent years. According to a blog post by Dr Karen Oberhauser of Journey North, for the first time in years, monarchs have had good conditions throughout the eastern breeding range. And because of the lessening of drought
- [A Cup of Gold](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2025/08/31/a-cup-of-gold/) - Cup plant (Silphium perfoliatum) is hard to miss, growing up to 9 feet tall. At the SBG, it can be seen lining the path from the parking area to the demonstration gardens, and throughout the meadow. A member of the Asteraceae family, this statuesque species boasts bright yellow blooms, and birds love the seeds that
- [A Little Prickly?](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2025/08/17/a-little-prickly/) - Prickly ash (Zanthoxylum parvum), currently blooming in the Woodland Garden, is an aromatic, spiny, thicket-forming deciduous shrub or small tree that, as the common name suggests, resembles (particularly in leaf) an ash with prickles. But somewhat surprisingly, it’s not an ash at all, but a member of the citrus family (Rutaceae). First described in Philip
- [Keep Calm and Carrot On](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2025/08/24/keep-calm-and-carrot-on/) - It’s easy to confuse the spicebush swallowtail with the black swallowtail (Papilio polyxenes), as both species have dark forewings and iridescent blue on their hindwings. However, black swallowtails can be distinguished by the bold yellow band that parallels the row of marginal yellow spots on both fore and hind wings. Also, while the larvae of
- [Blaze of Glory](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2025/08/10/blaze-of-glory/) - For a dramatic vertical accent in the summer pollinator garden, you can’t go wrong with blazing star. There are over 40 species of this member of the Asteraceae family, all featuring grass-like foliage, with tall spikes of flowers in hues ranging from red to purple. Liatris spicata, AKA dense blazing star or marsh blazing star
- [Wild for Wild Senna](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2025/08/03/wild-for-wild-senna/) - The distinctive foliage of wild senna (Senna hebecarpa) is topped with racemes of bright yellow flowers which are attractive to many bees. This member of the pea (Fabaceae) family has an unusually shaped bloom, and some claim that a close look at the unique flowers reveals a resemblance to a tiny ski jumper (which, once
- [Humming Along](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2025/07/27/humming-along/) - Hummingbird clearwing moth (Hemaris thysbe) The common name of this member of the sphinx moth family is no mystery. As it hovers over flowers, the rapidly beating clear wings and long beak-like proboscis can trick an observer into thinking, “Wait–was that a hummingbird?” Other shared traits are the olive-green color of its back and soft
- [Super Fly](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2025/07/20/super-fly/) - Look there, on that coneflower…Is it a bee? Is it a wasp? It’s… a hover fly! With their yellow and black stripes, hover flies (Syrphidae) look similar to other pollinating insects–but look again. Their distinctive eyes and lack of stinger mark them out as true flies. While adults consume pollen and nectar, the small, slug-like
- [Bee Magnet](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2025/07/13/bee-magnet/) - What’s that attractive, low shrub that’s just covered with visiting bees? Why, it’s shrubby St John’s wort (Hypericum prolificum). One of over 400 species of Hypericum, this absolute ‘bee magnet’ has a compact, mounding habit, dark green leaves, and bright yellow flowers. The species name prolificum is a clue to the appearance of the 5-
- [Independence](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2025/06/29/independence/) - Independence Day is right around the corner, and what could be more independent than a native solitary bee? Approximately 90% of the roughly 3,600 native bee species in North America are solitary, meaning each female bee constructs and provisions her own nest without assistance. These hard-working moms range in size from the tiny Perdita minima
- [Wet Feet](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2025/06/22/wet-feet/) - Though most of us might prefer sunnier days for the start of our summer vacation, recent rains have been good news for central PA after last year’s drought. While native plants are known for their resilience in the face of any weather, some have a marked preference for ‘wet feet’. If you’ve noticed a soggy
- [Guiding Lights](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2025/06/15/guiding-lights/) - The tall white spires of beardtongue (Penstemon digitalis) lend a graceful air to the late spring pollinator garden, and provide nectar and pollen at a time when spring resources are dwindling. The common name beardtongue refers to the hairy, sterile stamen on the lower half of the tubular flower. This “bearded” stalk forces a pollinating
- [Cutting Up](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2025/06/08/cutting-up/) - What’s eating my (redbud, rosebush, azalea, etc)? Homeowners observing this particular type of damage to trees and shrubs may assume that a dangerous pest is at work. However, the true story is much less sinister! The perfect semi-circular holes that look like the work of a hole punch are actually the artistry of a leafcutter
- [A Shrub for All Seasons](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2025/06/01/a-shrub-for-all-seasons/) - Ninebark (Physocarpus opulifolius) is a versatile native shrub with something going on in every season of the year. Its common name derives from its exfoliating bark, which produces a fascinating variety of shades from red to brown, making it especially valuable in the landscape for winter interest. (A fine example can be seen in the
- [Golden Opportunity](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2025/05/26/golden-opportunity/) - The lovely yellow blooms of Golden Alexander (Zizia aurea) fill the gap during that awkward period in late spring/early summer, when spring’s exuberance has faded but many other plants have yet to flower. With a form reminiscent of Queen Anne’s Lace, its sunny composite blooms are an attractive nectar source for butterflies and bees. There’s
- [Made in the Shade](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2025/05/11/made-in-the-shade/) - Foamflower (Tiarella cordifolia) is an attractive native ground cover for shade or part shade. If its heart-shaped leaves look familiar, it’s because this versatile plant is in the same family (Saxifragaceae) as Heuchera, cultivars of which are commonly sold in nurseries and big-box stores. Foamflower produces a spreading mat of semi-evergreen foliage with bottlebrush-like flowers
- [Up the Ladder](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2025/05/04/up-the-ladder/) - It’s spring ephemeral time at the SBG! and Jacob’s Ladder is currently blooming in the Woodland Garden. This member of the phlox family (Polemoniaceae) has delicate compound leaves that resemble the rungs of a ladder, hence the common name. The stamens of the bell-shaped flowers mature before the pistil, making pollination largely reliant on the
- [(Not-so) Lesser Evil](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2025/04/16/not-so-lesser-evil/) - While working in the demonstration gardens is usually an exercise in pleasant discoveries, we recently came across one plant we’d rather not find! Lesser celandine (Ficaria verna) is an introduced species that has become an increasingly widespread invader in our area. This member of the buttercup (Ranunculus) family looks innocuous enough, with shiny green leaves
- [Spice it Up](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2025/04/10/spice-it-up-2/) - At the SBG, spring means spicebush! Lindera benzoin, a member of the Lauraceae family, is currently blooming in all its glory in our gardens, as well as in wooded areas and along streams across the Centre region. Its gentle yellow hue is in soothing contrast to the ‘shock and awe’ of neon-bright, non-native forsythia. And
- [Trees for Bees](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2025/04/10/trees-for-bees/) - Red maples (Acer rubrum) are beloved by humans for their brilliant fall foliage and attractive, regular growth habit. But their blossoms provide an early spring treat for emerging pollinators. One of the most common and widespread deciduous trees in the eastern US, red maple is fast-growing, very adaptable, and is highly valued as an ornamental
- [Popular Populus](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2025/03/24/popular-populus/) - The fuzzy catkins of aspen are unfurling throughout Tudek Park this week, and can serve as a reminder of the importance of these and other native trees in a pollinator habitat. Though they are primarily wind-pollinated, relying on spring breezes to carry their pollen from male to female trees, members of the Populus family serve
- [Feed the Birds](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2025/03/02/feed-the-birds-2/) - A visitor to the SBG at this time of year can expect to be rewarded with the sight and sounds of a multitude of our feathered friends. A diverse array of birds can be spotted over the winter months, gathering high-energy seeds and fruits from native shrubs and perennials and taking cover from wintry blasts.
- [Founding Gardeners](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2025/02/15/founding-gardeners/) - Although the popular myth of George Washington chopping down a cherry tree has been largely debunked, it IS true that many of our founding fathers had a penchant for native trees! Washington, Adams, and Jefferson were all farmers, and were never happier than when planning or working in their gardens. In honor of President’s Day,
- [Minted](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2025/02/01/minted/) - The Perennial Plant Association recently named clustered mountain mint (Pycnanthemum muticum) as its 2025 Perennial Plant of the Year, and we at the SBG heartily concur! Arguably the most attractive of the mountain mints, the finely-textured, dark green leaves of clustered mountain mint take on a frosted appearance near the delicate blooms. Like other members
- [Pining for You](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2025/01/23/pining-for-you/) - With most of our native trees standing stark and bare at this time of year, evergreens like hemlock and pine stand out in the snowy winter landscape. Two-thirds of butterflies and moths depend on native trees and shrubs as host plants, and not just the deciduous ones! For example, more than 200 types of lepidopteran
- [Making it Official](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2025/01/19/making-it-official/) - The monarch butterfly just might be the most recognizable insect in America. At the SBG, we often refer to it as a ‘gateway insect’--an unmistakable, irresistible first step on the road to a greater appreciation of lepidoptera and other pollinators. But the US Fish and Wildlife Service recently proposed listing the species as threatened, due
- [Layer Up!](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2025/01/03/layer-up/) - These cold winter days are a great time to plan your 2025 pollinator garden. It’s tempting to dive right into ordering from those luscious seed catalogs–but before you start choosing plants, it’s wise to do a little planning. You may be focusing on your color palette or succession of bloom–but don’t forget that for the
- [Meet Me Under the Mistletoe](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2024/12/12/meet-me-under-the-mistletoe/) - Stealing a kiss under the mistletoe is a well-known Christmas tradition. But mistletoe is not just a holiday decoration--It’s vitally important as food, cover, and nesting sites for a large array of creatures. In fact, some animals couldn’t even survive without mistletoe, including some butterflies. There are over 1,300 species of mistletoe throughout the world;
- [Pollinator Puzzle](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2024/12/12/pollinator-puzzle/) - When poinsettias appear in the stores, it’s a sure sign that the festive season is upon us. But why are these Central American natives such an iconic symbol of the season in our country? And (perhaps more to the point, for our purposes) who pollinates them? Poinsettias were extensively used in their native land by
- [Love Pumpkin? Thank a Squash Bee!](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2024/12/02/love-pumpkin-thank-a-squash-bee/) - Our native cucurbits, pumpkin and squash, rely on native squash bees for pollination. Ground-nesting, solitary squash bees (two different genera: Peponapis and Xenoglossa) look a bit like honey bees, but they’re hairier and slightly smaller. The hard- working single moms make a foot-long, pencil-thin tunnel in the soil with single nest cells off the sides.
- [On a Wing and a Prayer](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2024/11/08/on-a-wing-and-a-prayer/) - The distinctive seedpods of milkweeds (Asclepias spp) are produced in late summer. At first a fresh green, they have turned dry and brown by this time of year. The shape and size of the pods (follicles) vary according to species, but generally they’re oval, tapering to a point at the top. These pods are filled
- [Love Lunas? Leave the Leaves!](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2024/11/01/love-lunas-leave-the-leaves/) - The luna moth (Actias luna), with its incredible size (3-4.5-inch wingspan), striking pale green color, and long tails, is arguably one of the most spectacular moths of North America.The name for this giant silk moth was chosen by Linneaus to honor Luna, the Roman moon goddess, in reference to its ethereal nocturnal beauty. Since many
- [Fright or Friend?](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2024/10/31/fright-or-friend/) - Eek! The jagged assassin bug (Phymata spp) might look scary, but there’s no need to fear–unless you’re an insect. This garden friend is a voracious predator, sitting motionless and waiting for the right prey to pass by. These can include flies, moths, beetle larvae, and other true bugs. Happy Halloween from the SBG!
- [Best Supporting Act](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2024/10/19/best-supporting-act/) - It’s beginning to feel a lot like autumn, and right on cue, the leaves are beginning to don their magnificent fall costumes. But it’s not just trees that can put on a show! Itea virginica, AKA sweetspire, is a great supporting act. Its beautiful fall color and mounding shape make it the perfect native alternative
- [Falling for Fall](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2024/10/11/falling-for-fall/) - “Bringing the outside in” is a popular decorating trend, and autumn is a great time for it, offering many interesting natural materials from which to choose. One fall favorite is bittersweet, with its vibrant orange and yellow berries spread along vines that just beg to be woven into a wreath or swag. But did you
- [Staying Power](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2024/10/05/staying-power/) - A must for any pollinator garden, aromatic aster (Symphotrichum oblongifolium) produces masses of purple flowers in the fall which bloom until frost. Typically sporting the longest- lasting blooms in our demonstration gardens, this species of aster is abuzz with bees and other pollinators late into the season. The dense, low, mounded plants are a bit
- [Keeping Time](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2023/03/16/keeping-time/) - At the vernal (spring) equinox, the sun shines directly at the equator, making it one of two times in the year when days and nights are of roughly equal length. It often awakens a sense of hope and expectation from us, as we look forward to longer, warmer days ahead. But what about our plants?
- [Clean Up Your Act](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2023/04/18/clean-up-your-act/) - You were a conscientious gardener and waited to begin your spring clean-up until after April 15 (even though it was killing you!) Good for you–now what? As you eagerly get to work, here are a few guidelines to keep in mind: * Clean (but not too clean): When cutting down old plant canes, leave a
- [Soft Landings](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2023/04/18/soft-landings/) - Arbor Day is right around the corner (April 28) and at the SBG, we love to celebrate trees–after all, native trees and shrubs serve as all-important host plants for ⅔ of all lepidopteran species. Butterflies and moths lay their eggs on twigs and branches, and larvae feed on the leaves. But did you know that
- [Hi, Neighbor!](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2023/05/30/hi-neigbor/) - Finding the capped-off tunnels of native cavity-nesting bees is always a thrill for us at the SBG. Whether spotted in a constructed ‘bee hotel’ or in more natural areas, we love to see this concrete evidence of pollinator life cycles in our habitat! These little bees are important, highly efficient pollinators–but they’re often quite small,
- [Mind the Gap](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2023/05/30/mind-the-gap/) - Golden Alexanders (Zizia aurea) is an easy-going native that should be in every pollinator garden. Its blooms fill the gap during that awkward period in late spring/early summer, when spring’s exuberance has faded but many other plants have yet to flower. Reminiscent in form of Queen Anne’s Lace, its sunny composite blooms are an attractive
- [Let's Hear it for the Boys](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2023/07/25/lets-hear-it-for-the-boys/) - It’s easy to joke about how male bees are only good for one thing. But on this Father’s Day, let’s take a closer look at how and why these fellows are an essential part of our ecosystem! My Bee , My Choice: Because bees are haploid organisms (having only one set of chromosomes), bee moms
- [The Admirable Red Admiral](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2023/07/25/the-admirable-red-admiral/) - The gorgeous red admiral butterfly can be found worldwide, including at the SBG! Adults are easily identified by the bright orange-red bands and white spots on all four black wings. And the caterpillars can be spotted snacking on their favorite host plant, stinging nettle (Urticaria dioica), as shown in this photo taken recently in our
- [A Tale of Two...Monardas](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2023/07/25/a-tale-of-two-monardas/) - Scarlet bee balm (Monarda didyma) is a most decorative member of the mint family. The common name ‘bee balm' refers to the historical use of a resin derived from the plant that was used for healing and soothing bee stings. Its spectacular flower clusters resemble fireworks in the garden, erupting just in time for July
- [Wanna-Bees](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2023/09/06/wanna-bees/) - Bees: these pollinator super-stars are great garden friends who are enjoying increasing popularity among gardeners who realize their value. But what about their ancestors, the wasp family? Wasps usually get a bad rap, with their reputation for painful stings. But these pollinators serve an essential role: Nature’s pest controllers. Wasps are carnivorous hunters, preying on
- [Parsley Worms?](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2023/09/06/parsley-worms/) - Gardeners know: Those colorful swallowtails munching away on your dill, fennel or parsley can eat the entire herb down to a nub in no time at all! Black swallowtails (Papilio polyxenes) enjoy many plants that grow in our vegetable and herb gardens–in fact, they were known as ‘parsley worms’ in the 19th century. But wait–these
- [Regular Joe](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2023/09/06/regular-joe/) - Joe Pye Weed (Eutrochium spp ) is in full bloom at the SBG, and pollinators are taking full advantage of its bounty! This wonderful native choice is said to be named for a Mohican medicine man from Salem, Mass who had great success curing colonial settlers of typhus with this herb. The common name is
- [Back-to-School Edition](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2023/09/06/back-to-school-edition/) - Since 2010, the SBG has been installing ‘satellite gardens’ at schools throughout the Centre region–more than 20 to date! Master Gardeners work with students, teachers and parents to design and install pollinator- friendly habitats, and teach these ‘satellite stewards’ how to maintain the plantings. Spring Creek Elementary’s new satellite garden (pictured) was installed earlier this
- [Meet the Beetles](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2024/07/12/meet-the-beetles/) - What pollinating insect has over 400,000 known species, making up almost half of all insects and 25% of all animals on our planet? Why, beetles, of course! This ancient and highly diverse group (Coleoptera) are beneficial insects in many ways. Predatory beetles such as lady beetles, fireflies and tiger beetles eat insect pests and keep
- [Feed the Birds](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2024/07/12/feed-the-birds/) - Many gardeners are bird lovers, and even those who aren't confirmed 'birders' enjoy watching our feathered friends in the garden throughout the bleak winter month, often with the aid of bird feeding stations.The rising price of birdseed and incidences of disease may discourage some from keeping those feeders topped up. Fortunately, there's an even better
- [Leaves for Lepidoptera](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2023/10/19/leaves-for-lepidoptera/) - With the advent of colder temperatures, curbside leaf collection is underway in many parts of the Centre region. But savvy pollinator gardeners know that fallen leaves are garden gold. More than 90 percent of caterpillars that develop on plants hatch or pupate at the ground level, often beneath leaf litter. Many fallen leaves harbor small
- [Wild and Woolly](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2023/10/10/wild-and-woolly/) - We’ve posted before about that caterpillar that we all see crossing our paths at this time of year–the banded woolly bear, or the larval stage of the tiger moth. There are more than 260 different species of tiger moths in North America, but the most common is the Isabella tiger moth (Pyrrharctia isabella, pictured). Contrary
- [SOS--Save Our Seeds!](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2023/10/10/sos-save-our-seeds/) - It’s hard to believe, but it’s time for many of our favorite pollinator plants to set seed. And now’s the time for the savvy gardener to begin collecting them! Why? Of course, one good reason is purely economical. Many native plants are easy to propagate from seed–so why pay nursery prices when you can grow
- [A Regal Pair](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2023/09/16/a-regal-pair/) - “Purple and gold, the heraldic colors of the king and queen of the meadow, a regal procession in complementary colors”. Robin Wall Kimmerer In her best-selling Braiding Sweetgrass, author and scientist Kimmerer devotes a chapter to the beauty of the classic meadow combo of asters and goldenrod. Appearing at a time when most other perennials
- [Vole patrol](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2023/02/01/vole-patrol/) - As the snow melts, homeowners may begin to notice a network of ‘runways’ wreaking havoc on their lawns and flowerbeds. Some will blame moles for the damage, but an entirely different species is likely the culprit. Moles are fossorial (digging and living underground) and their activity forms raised tunnels. Voles (Microtus spp.) are semi-fossorial rodents that
- [The gall of it](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2023/02/01/the-gall-of-it/) - The winter landscape offers a chance to focus on interesting sights that are often hidden by the blooms of spring and summer. The brown, spent stems of goldenrod (Solidago spp.) may not seem to have much to offer at first glance–but a closer look reveals a fascinating life story!The swollen area on this goldenrod stem
- [Gardening is for the birds](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2023/02/01/gardening-is-for-the-birds/) - Many gardeners are bird lovers, and even those who aren't confirmed 'birders' enjoy watching our feathered friends in the garden throughout the bleak winter months, often with the aid of bird feeding stations. The rising price of birdseed and incidences of disease may discourage some from keeping those feeders topped up. Fortunately, there's an even
- [Love is in the air](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2023/02/19/love-is-in-the-air/) - Valentine’s Day may have passed, but love is in the air at the El Rosario Monarch Butterfly Biosphere Reserve in Mexico! Observations from this most-visited winter home of monarch butterflies reveal an increase in mating activity since Feb. 12, according to a recent update by Monarch Watch. ​ Rising temperatures and longer days cause an
- [Super bee Sunday](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2023/02/19/super-bee-sunday/) - Bumble bees (Bombus spp) are superstars of the pollinator world. Their long work day, efficient pollen-transport structures, and ability to pollinate a wide variety of plants combine to make them true MVPs! But how (and where) do they spend the cold winter months?Like honey bees, most species of bumble bee are eusocial (living in a
- [Any questions?](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2023/02/19/any-questions/) - Question mark butterflies (Polygonia interrogationis) can be found throughout the eastern U.S., most often in open woods or woodland edges, parks, or older subdivisions where there are plenty of mature trees (looking at you, Tudek and Park Forest!) And amazingly, these beauties spend the winter in their adult form–at least, one generation does.The summer generation
- [Weather Whiplash](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2023/03/04/weather-whiplash/) - Sunny and 70 degrees one day, snow and ice the next; periods of drought followed by torrential rains. Sound familiar? ‘Weather whiplash’ is becoming ever-more common, and we’re not the only ones to notice its effects. This type of weather can impact everything in our ecosystem, including pollinators and their phenology (the timing of biological
- [Blast from the Past](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2023/03/04/blast-from-the-past/) - Over 70% of native bees are ground nesting, with the females digging and provisioning their own individual nests in the autumn. Each cell is provisioned with a ball of pollen and nectar, with the egg laid right on top. When the larvae hatches, it will find all the food it needs right at hand. The
- [Double Duty](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2024/07/12/double-duty/) - At the SBG, amsonia is one of our favorite double-duty native perennials, with its lovely blue spring flowers and brilliant fall foliage. Mount Cuba Center recently released the results of a ten-year trial of 20 species of amsonia, AKA bluestar, and guess what? Each of the studied varieties were found to be healthy, attractive plants
- [Sign of Spring](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2024/07/13/sign-of-spring/) - Pussy willow (Salix discolor) is a welcome sight as one of the earliest signs of spring, and it’s perhaps the only shrub prized for it buds rather than its flowers. The fuzzy catkins provide cheer for us as we endure the last days of cold weather; even more crucially, they provide essential food for the
- [Eggs-citing](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2024/07/13/eggs-citing/) - The Easter Bunny isn’t the only one who brings colorful eggs! Many butterflies and moths lay beautiful, jewel-like eggs, either singly or in masses. Some butterflies like the black swallowtail, red admiral and monarch lay one egg at a time. Others deposit their eggs en masse–for example, the pearl crescent lays eggs in clusters of
- [Spice it Up](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2024/07/13/spice-it-up/) - We crave the bright colors of spring after a long, grey winter, and native plants are always happy to oblige! One of our hands-down favorite shrubs at the SBG is the native northern spicebush (Lindera benzoin). Unlike the more showy but non-native forsythia, spicebush offers beauty and wildlife value beyond its yellow flowers. In early
- [Sweet Violet](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2024/07/13/sweet-violet/) - A North American native, Canada violet (Viola canadensis) delights us in spring with its fragrant white blooms. A good choice for heavily shaded areas, it will even thrive under black walnut trees, freely self-seeding throughout the years. Even better, Canada violet supports a diversity of pollinators. Fritillary butterflies use it as a host plant; it
- [Way Down Yonder....](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2024/07/14/way-down-yonder/) - Pawpaw (Asiminia triloba) could once be found growing all over the eastern half of the US, especially favoring the rich alluvial soils of river valleys from the Missouri to the Potomac. It’s a small tree, rarely exceeding 20 feet, and in the wild it forms dense colonies (the “pawpaw patch” of the old folk song).
- [Smooth Move](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2024/07/14/smooth-move/) - Smooth hydrangea (Hydrangea arborescens) is a wonderful native hydrangea that is the host for the stunning hydrangea sphinx moth (Darapsa versicolor). However, these caterpillars aren’t the only ones who enjoy this shrub… At this time of year, close inspection of your hydrangea may reveal the unmistakable signs of the hydrangea leaftier moth (Olethreutes ferriferana). The
- [Sweet Native](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2024/07/14/sweet-native/) - Many pollinator gardeners have learned that some popular ‘pollinator’ plants are really not that great for the habitat, such as butterfly bush (Buddleia). But what if we told you that there’s a fantastic native alternative with abundant nectar, fragrant, showy flowers, tolerance of many conditions, and brilliant fall color to boot? Sweetspire (Itea virginica) is
- [Name That Native!](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2024/07/14/name-that-native/) - Blooming now, the broad, flat clusters of elderberry (Sambuca spp) are an attractive nectar source for a wide array of bees, butterflies, beetles and other pollinators.. In addition to providing nectar, it’s the host plant for a variety of lepidoptera, most notably the beautiful Cecropia moth (Hyalophora cecropia). Berries ripen in late summer and provide
- [Smell of Success](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2024/07/14/smell-of-success/) - “Its flowers are very fragrant and when in season, they fill the woods with their sweet exhalations and make it agreeable to travel in them, especially in the evening”. Pehr Kalm The famous Swedish scientist and colleague of Linnaeus wasn’t wrong–humans and insects alike are drawn to the intoxicating perfume of common milkweed (Asclepias syriaca)
- [Prairie Powerhouse](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2024/07/23/prairie-powerhouse/) - The bright yellow flowers of prairie coneflower (Ratibida spp) feature heavily drooping petals that flutter in the slightest breeze, grouped around a tall, domed center crown. Its blooms hold for a long period in summer, and it mixes well with tall grasses in a naturalized setting. Since individual plants are somewhat narrow, it's at its
- [No Sweat](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2024/07/23/no-sweat/) - The beautiful bright, shiny coloration of this little bee may make it one of the easiest bees in the garden to spot. Agapostemon, or metallic sweat bees, are solitary ground nesting bees, and require bare ground in which to dig their tunnels, so leaving un-mulched areas in your landscape can encourage them to make a
- [King of the Meadow](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2024/07/28/king-of-the-meadow/) - Growing anywhere from 2 to 10 feet tall, it’s no wonder that another common name for tall meadow rue (Thalictrum pubescens) is King of the Meadow! This member of the buttercup family has lacy, three-lobed foliage that looks similar to that of columbine. Clusters of male and female flowers are borne on separate plants, and
- [Milkweed Madness](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2024/08/14/milkweed-madness/) - Monarch butterflies depend on milkweed to survive--but they're not the only ones! There are two true bugs that are associated with milkweed at this time of year, the large milkweed bug (Oncopeltus fasciatus, pictured) and the small milkweed bug. (The designation “large” is relative, as this little insect is only about ¾ ” long!) Both
- [Milkweed Loves Monarchs](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2024/09/12/milkweed-loves-monarchs/) - That’s right–not only do monarchs need milkweed to survive, but some ecologists believe that milkweeds may rely on monarchs as well! Bees such as bumble bees are extremely efficient and reliable pollinators, moving large amounts of pollen throughout their territory. Their heavy bodies and hairy legs are perfectly designed for slipping into a milkweed flower’s
- [Monarch Migration 2024](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2024/09/20/monarch-migration-2024/) - First reports are in…and they’re not great. According to the World Wildlife Federation, the eastern migratory monarch population shows a drastic decline, with numbers decreasing by 59% compared to 2023. Why? Adverse climatic conditions seem to have played a large role, including –excessive rainfall in early summer, limiting time for egg laying (since monarchs’ life
- [A Bee, or Not a Bee?](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2024/09/25/a-bee-or-not-a-bee/) - That is the question…which is frequently asked by visitors to the SBG! When we discuss the habits of solitary ground nesting bees, someone invariably has a story about a negative interaction with a small stripy creature, which they are sure was a bee. But upon further questioning, it emerges that the culprit was likely a
- [I Need a Drink!](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2023/05/30/i-need-a-drink/) - The dry weather we’ve been experiencing recently is a reminder that pollinators need water, too! A fully-stocked pollinator habitat must include water sources for butterflies and bees. If you don’t have a natural water source (stream, pond, spring) nearby, you can quickly and easily create something that will fulfill pollinators’ needs. Birdbaths, fountains and water
- [Suddenly Susans](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2023/09/06/suddenly-susans/) - The cheerful faces of ‘black-eyed Susans’ set gardens and roadsides ablaze at this time of year. The genus name Rudbeckia honors Olof Rudbeck, teacher and mentor of Linnaeus, whose tall stature and brilliant mind were reflected by this flower. With nearly 23 different species native to North America, Rudbeckia is an essential component of any
- [Anise? Hyssop?](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2024/07/14/anise-hyssop/) - Neither an anise or a hyssop, this member of the mint family has the characteristic square stems of its tribe. Its spikes of tubular lavender blooms, appearing July-September, provide nectar for long-tongued bees, butterflies and hummingbirds well into fall. In fact, it’s so attractive to bees that mass plantings were once established throughout the Midwest
- [A Honey of a Plant](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2024/07/14/a-honey-of-a-plant/) - At the SBG, we’re often asked, “What kind of honeysuckle is OK to plant”? People are increasingly aware that non-native honeysuckles (such as Japanese or Amur honeysuckle) are highly invasive and have become a real problem in many areas. But with its shrubby form, yellow trumpet-shaped flowers, and dark green leaves which turn yellow, orange
- [True Blue](https://snetsingerbutterflygarden.org/2024/07/13/true-blue/) - Arguably one of our most beautiful spring ephemerals, Virginia bluebells are stunning when grown in mass plantings around trees and shrubs, or in shade gardens. The dainty, bell-shaped flowers appear atop compact clumps of gray-green foliage, and last for several weeks. As they mature, blossoms change from pinkish buds to shades of purple, finally arriving
