I thought I would wrap up our visit to Stan Hywet Gardens with a trip to the Butterfly House!
When we were visiting, we saw mostly Monarch Butterflies in all stages of development.

Who were much fun to watch as they went on their leave tasting trips....
...and then spinning their cacoon...
...and encasing themselves in their chrysalis
I love the splashes of yellow!
...and then emerging into butterflies!!
...or moths ;-)
Aren't their markings beautiful!!
Hans Christian Anderson said it best, didn't he??
I could have stayed here for hours!!
Thanks for joining me the past few days on my tour of Stan Hywet Gardens!
If you are ever in the Akron/Cleveland Area, make sure to take a morning or afternoon and spend sometime smelling the flowers!
A HOUSE FULL of BUTTIE PILLARs!!!!!!
