Colorful butterflies add to the beauty of fall in the Lowcountry. If your residential landscape design includes fragrant flowers in full sun or partial shade and you limit the use of outdoor spray pesticides, your yard is likely brimming right now with an abundance of fluttering allure. (They LOVE lantana in sunshine.) Click to enlarge the following images of butterflies commonly seen in Charleston in the fall.
This time of year, it’s common to see swallowtails…

…yellow sulfurs…

…Gulf fritillaries…

…and, the most majestic of all, the migrating North American monarch (featured image at top of post).
Make sure to contact me for a free estimate, and I’ll design a yard for you that attracts an abundance of colorful butterflies.

https://lowcountryvistas.com Hi, I’m Seth Mason, James Island native and owner and sole employee of Lowcountry Vistas Charleston Landscape Design and Installation.
From the time I was 9 years old, I took pride in caring for my mother’s yard on the Island. The son of an artist and a lover of nature, making my mom’s yard look good became of a passion of mine at a young age.
Years later, after having earned my M.B.A. during the 2008 Financial Crisis, I took part-time landscaping work to get by. In time, I came to realize that landscape design and installation was my calling: It combines my love of sculpting Charleston natural beauty, business acumen, and fresh air and sun. After earning my landscaping chops working alongside a fellow devotee to Charleston horticulture, I went on my own and started Lowcountry Vistas in 2015.
Lowcountry Vistas is more than just a job to me. It’s a dream. I love improving peoples’ properties through my landscape design plans and landscape installations. Make sure to take advantage of my free consultation limited-time offer to learn more about what I can do for you!
