Bringing Butterflies to Mumbai
Mumbai and its surrounding areas are home to over 150 butterfly species. A well-designed butterfly garden can attract 20-40 species right to your garden.
We use scientific knowledge of butterfly life cycles to create gardens with both host plants (where butterflies lay eggs) and nectar plants (where they feed). The result is a living, fluttering garden that delights all ages.
What Makes a Butterfly Garden
A successful butterfly garden includes:
- Host plants: Curry leaf, Citrus, Cassia, Milkweed (for caterpillars)
- Nectar plants: Lantana, Pentas, Zinnia, Ixora, Jatropha
- Sunny basking stones for butterflies to warm their wings
- Shallow water dishes with pebbles for drinking
- Windbreak hedges for shelter
- Fruit feeding stations (overripe banana, papaya)
- Pesticide-free organic maintenance only
Perfect For
Butterfly gardens are ideal for schools (environmental education), housing society common areas, children's play zones, nature clubs, farmhouses, and anyone who loves watching nature. We also design butterfly corners for smaller spaces like terraces and large balconies.
