Looking for a book(s) about Butterfly Gardening

Post by The Annoying Czech »

Hello, me and my colleague are planning to offer and popularize Butterfly Gardening theme in Czech Rep., so I'm searching for a publications, either online (various papers) or books - as much detailed and expert as possible. Euroepan only, as much respecting Central European conditions as possible, but written in English language.

Thanks in advance for any tips,


Marek

Here is a site with a list of plants for pollinators.
Is this any use ?

Thank you. AFAIK, there is almost zero materials about in my language, so I have to look outside borders.

Be happy to see even more links here!

Andrew George - The Butterfly Friendly Garden - everything from planting of colourful borders with nice showy things that also happen to attract butterflies, to extreme butterfly gardening involving the use of earth-moving equipment and bringing in truckloads of quarry waste to create calcareous grassland. The author's reasonable-sized garden used to hold the largest population of Small Blue in Somerset.
