BUTTERFLIES OF BRISBANE - "LEAFWING & LOVE FLOWER"

Flying Flowers......I have described butterflies as such and I have also read elsewhere of the same description.  I love my garden and how it provides a green magnet for these sweet wee creatures, I just can't get enough of them.
Although I have previously started a butterfly series, this new series is specific to Brisbane Butterflies and their Host Plants and originated from my discovery of a lovely lady called Jo who's in the business of Butterflies.  She grows and sells butterfly host plant as well as a lovely book called "Create More Butterflies" by Frank Jordan and Helen Schwenke.  I first discovered this book at the local Library but was unable to find any book store (online or otherwise) that had any in stock to purchase.  And then I found Jo.......so if you like this book, the only place to get it is from Jo or secondhand (I guess). 
Here's a link to her Facebook Page
