my caterpillar just became a butterfly, and i dont know what flowers to give it. also, how long should i keep it for its wings to dry.?
What flowers do tiger swallowtail butterfly's prefer?
Keep the butterfly's wings drying until it takes off in flight. If you interrupt the process it could lead to horrible mutations. Second of all, tiger swallowtails will except a variety of nectaring plants, but especially the larger species of buddlea (Butterfly bush) work well. They also like aster, and several plants with small flowers. There are also smaller species of butterfly bush you could get. Or you could simply make nectar yourself, using a simple recipe that you could probably find on the internet. I've seen it before, but I don't remember the ingredients.
