5.0 out of 5 stars Hands down, the finest butterfly book for Florida, June 23, 2000

Cristobal! (St Petersburg) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Gardening for Florida's butterflies (Paperback)

The photographs in this book make identification of eggs, larvae, chrysalids and butterflies a snap. The text isn't academic mumbo jumbo, but a conversational discussion of how to encourage butterflies to visit your yard. And the plant section is great for selection purposes...

I hope the author does a book like this for dragonflies in Florida, because I've got this pond...
