All in color! Create a miniature tropical rainforest--with passion flowers, banana plants, and other magnificent exotics--in your greenhouse or conservatory, and make a home for the most colorful, unique butterflies in the world! Monarchs, Asian swallowtails, and a host of South American species will thrive in this habitat, including some that have become rare in their natural environments. Play a vital role in their conservation, caring for these delicate creatures in every stage of their lifecycle. Set up the right ecosystem (heating, light, water, and plants) for their "paradise"; understand feeding, breeding, and courtship rituals; care for young ones; move and house larvae; and prevent health problems. A guide to butterflies helps you select the right ones, and full-color photographs throughout show what wonders await you! -- amazon.com
