I don't know about you, but the recent extreme temperatures have taken a toll on my garden. Some of my plants have become seriously dehydrated, and my lawn is looking a little less vibrant than before. While trying to revive my garden, I've realized my plants aren't the only things struggling in the summer heat – wildlife also need help staying hydrated. So, I started doing some research into how to help them and stumbled across the sweetest idea: a fruit salad for butterflies.
This is the perfect garden project for anyone wanting to attract butterflies to their yard. It consists of putting out a dish of a wide range of sweet and juicy fruits for butterflies to eat and drink from. Not only does it provide hydration, but it also gives these busy pollinators some natural sugars that energize them. Plus, it's a great way to use up those bruised and slightly spoiled fruits you won't eat yourself.
