Flying Flowers

Wythe County

Flying Flowers houses native butterflies which include the specific plants they will need to spend their life cycle with us. Join us for a program and walk amongst the butterflies and even enjoy a Butterfly Tea.

For those of you who have visited Beagle Ridge Herb Farm before you know how many butterflies we have living here with us. We have specialized in butterfly plantings using both native and non native plants and have identified 32 different butterflies. We garden naturally with no pesticides or chemical fertilizers and grow a wide variety of native and non natives. The large diversity of both host and nectar plantings attract butterflies in their adult stage which then lay their eggs in the garden and the cycle begins again.

We are located 10 miles south of Wytheville, VA. in the beautiful Blue Ridge Highlands at approx 2,600' elevation. Our host site at Beagle Ridge Herb Farm and Environmental Education Center is a 160 acre oasis nestled in a valley between forested hills. This location provides privacy and serenity for both us and the butterflies. Hiking trails traverse a wide variety of ecosystems on the property and there is a huge native population of butterflies which inhabit the surrounding gardens.
