Transform your garden into a butterfly paradise with the Thistle Butterfly Puddler. This beautiful stoneware piece is designed to attract butterflies by providing them with essential minerals they crave. Let’s explore how this unique garden accessory can enhance your outdoor space and bring more of these delightful creatures to your yard.
The Thistle Butterfly Puddler features a shallow well made of recycled glass that holds sand or rock salt and a small amount of water. As the water evaporates, it leaves behind mineral crystals that butterflies find irresistible. This clever design mimics natural “puddling” spots that butterflies seek out in the wild.
Jo-Anne and Gerald Warren, the creators of the Thistle Butterfly Puddler, are passionate about crafting environmentally friendly stoneware products. Their company, Amaranth, is named after a mythical flower that never fades – a fitting name for their durable and long-lasting creations. The Warrens use a high-temperature firing process to ensure their products can withstand all seasons and elements while maintaining their charm.
Q: How often do I need to refill the water in the puddler?
A: Typically, you’ll need to add water every 1-2 days, depending on weather conditions and evaporation rate.
Q: Can I use something other than sand in the puddler?
A: Yes, you can use rock salt or even place overripe fruit on the puddler to attract butterflies.
Q: Will the puddler attract other insects besides butterflies?
A: While designed primarily for butterflies, other beneficial insects may also be attracted to the mineral-rich water.
Q: How do I clean the butterfly puddler?
A: Simply rinse with water and let it air dry. Avoid using harsh chemicals that could harm butterflies.
