Phipps’ annual Butterfly Forest awes visitors with an up-close look at some of nature’s most prized pollinators alongside the blossoming flowers that feed them.
Butterflies are winged insects characterized by large, often brightly colored wings that have populated Earth for more than fifty million years.
You’ll stroll along a winding forest path over a bridge, past ponds and through a tunnel, to discover beautiful butterflies as they flutter, eat and rest inside the Stove Room.
Enjoy the majesty of a multitude of butterfly species surrounded by the plants that provide them with nectar, see live metamorphoses as butterflies transform and emerge from their chrysalises and delight in the fluttering array of vivid colors, shapes, sizes, patterns and motions. See how many species you can identify as you explore the garden — if you take your time and move slowly, one of these beauties might even land on your shoulder!
