Go with a no-fuss garden that you can lay out on almost any plot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Choose tried-and-true plants like butterfly weed, aster, catmint, and bee balm, all of which produce mega color from summer to fall. The pollen, nectar, and seeds in these plants are irresistible to bees, butterflies, and birds. And, flying friends may especially like it if you add a little birdhouse for them to perch on and nest in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a><\/a>Full Sun Garden<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Areas that get sunshine all day need gardens that don\u2019t require much care, especially with so many cities and states experiencing water shortages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our full-sun garden idea includes hardy perennials like purple coneflower, aster, and coreopsis. These sun-loving and long-blooming florals tolerate drought, and they provide lots of nectar for butterflies and seeds for birds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a><\/a>Island Butterfly Garden<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Simple-to-grow perennial and annual flowers like butterfly bush, phlox, and anise hyssop can be the highlight of an island-inspired butterfly garden, with leafy sources of food, such as parsley, added to nourish butterfly larvae.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An island garden wouldn\u2019t be a proper one without a water feature and some rocks. So, add these features to give butterflies and birds something to drink out of and sunbathe on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"717\" src=\"https:\/\/bhgrecareer.com\/bebetterblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2022\/07\/BHGRE-Blog-Image-Garden-Makeover-Spruce-Yard-Butterfly-BirdFriendly-Plants3-Small-Space-WAter-Saving-1024x717.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-59521\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bhgrecareer.com\/bebetterblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2022\/07\/BHGRE-Blog-Image-Garden-Makeover-Spruce-Yard-Butterfly-BirdFriendly-Plants3-Small-Space-WAter-Saving-1024x717.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/bhgrecareer.com\/bebetterblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2022\/07\/BHGRE-Blog-Image-Garden-Makeover-Spruce-Yard-Butterfly-BirdFriendly-Plants3-Small-Space-WAter-Saving-300x210.jpg 300w, https:\/\/bhgrecareer.com\/bebetterblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2022\/07\/BHGRE-Blog-Image-Garden-Makeover-Spruce-Yard-Butterfly-BirdFriendly-Plants3-Small-Space-WAter-Saving-768x538.jpg 768w, https:\/\/bhgrecareer.com\/bebetterblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2022\/07\/BHGRE-Blog-Image-Garden-Makeover-Spruce-Yard-Butterfly-BirdFriendly-Plants3-Small-Space-WAter-Saving-1536x1075.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/bhgrecareer.com\/bebetterblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2022\/07\/BHGRE-Blog-Image-Garden-Makeover-Spruce-Yard-Butterfly-BirdFriendly-Plants3-Small-Space-WAter-Saving-2048x1434.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/bhgrecareer.com\/bebetterblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2022\/07\/BHGRE-Blog-Image-Garden-Makeover-Spruce-Yard-Butterfly-BirdFriendly-Plants3-Small-Space-WAter-Saving-100x70.jpg 100w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a><\/a>Small-Space Water-Saving Garden<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Properties that don\u2019t have a large yard, and those without easy access to a water resource, can still benefit from a butterfly and bird garden.
