The Desert Botanical Garden has a plant they call a butterfly bush located at one spot in the garden. It always draws in the butterflies. This bush must be especially sweet because the butterflies really do love it.
I can always find butterflies fluttering around this bush. On this day, they were all queen butterflies. In fact, we have a lot of queen butterflies in the Phoenix area. They are the dominate species around here.

Buddleja in Swedish.
You have such patience to get these images.
How beautiful, Sharon.
Wow...queen butterflies! I learned something new from this post and did a little more research on them. Its wing pattern is beautiful.
Great captures of the beautiful butterflies. I have a hard time getting a good photo of them, they always take off.
I haven't seen those for a while.
I am glad I passed by.
Nice! That's not the same butterfly bush we have here in England -- which I believe is the kind Stefan is talking about above. Yours almost looks like a thistle.
so pretty, are the flowers from the Buddleia
