The Rookie Gardener: The Quiet Magic of Butterflies

In this episode of The Rookie Gardener, Chloe Foster joins Cheralyn Darcey for a gentle and uplifting journey into the world of butterflies. These fragile visitors are far more than a fleeting moment of colour in the garden. They are powerful pollinators, indicators of environmental health and essential partners in keeping our backyards thriving.

Chloe explains why butterflies matter, how their life cycle shapes their needs and the simple changes every gardener can make to welcome more of them. From host plants to nectar paths, from safe resting spots to microclimates that support their survival, this conversation offers practical, hopeful guidance for anyone who wants their garden to hum with life.

A beautiful blend of science and soul, this is a reminder that even the smallest wings can carry enormous meaning.
