Imagine yourself in a place where the brilliance and the delicate scent of tropical flowers blend with the calming sound of water gently tumbling over rocks in a stream, a place where thousands of butterflies flit back and forth. Moments like these will be possible at Brookgreen Garden’s new Butterfly House, which will feature hundreds of species of butterflies that are native to the Southeast. The exhibit will further the mission to exhibit and educate visitors about the animals, ecology, and plants in the area.
