Click on the following link to see what the National Wildlife Federation website has to say about attracting butterflies. The site solicits donations; however, it is definitely not required. The website provides free advice. Good luck!https://www.nwf.org/en/Garden-for-Wildlife/Wildlife/Attracting-Butterflies -

I’ve noticed butterflies in summer landing on any of the plants with tiny flowers, like lantana. For whatever biological reason, bees seem to be around hedgebushes with tiny white flowers, but that may just be my eyesight. ☺️ -

Monarch butterflies lay their eggs on milkweed only. You can attract other types of butterflies with many flowering plants but Monarch must have milkweed.
