UT Gardens: Gardening for Caterpillars
Category: Classes, workshops and Science, nature
Sunday, October 18, 2020
1-3 pm
Cost: $35 Garden members/ $45 nonmembers
Everyone agrees that butterflies are a welcome sight in the garden, but their caterpillars are often ignored and sometimes even eradicated. Join local garden author John Tullock to learn how to support this crucial stage of butterfly development. Identification of common butterflies, their caterpillars, and preferred host plants will be explored. Participants will be given a butterfly host plant to add to their home garden.
This class will be held via Zoom. Plants will be available for pick up at the garden. Details and meeting link will be sent to participants upon registration. https://secure.touchnet.com/C21610_ustores/web/product_detail.jsp?PRODUCTID=1787&SINGLESTORE=true
