Bengaluru: The Horticulture Department will be setting up an open-to-air butterfly park within Lalbagh.
The botanical garden has close to 900 genera and 2,500 plant species which is spread across the park. These species will attract butterflies.
The department will be planting around 150 host plants (used for laying eggs, and for pupation and feeding) in an acre near in the garden. By planting these varieties, we can ensure the number butterflies visiting the park increases 20-fold.
“We have started work, and the butterfly park should be ready in six months,” said the department.
