November Program Meeting: Plants for Butterflies

  • Aspen Drive Library 701 Aspen Drive Vernon Hills, Illinois 60061 (map)

Did you know an oak tree is the larval host for more than 500 species of butterflies and moths? Discover the many trees, evergreens, shrubs, and vines that are home to a wide array of Lepidoptera. We’ll explore the host plants and life cycles of common favorites and rare beauties in this information-packed presentation. 

Heather Prince is a trained horticulturist and landscape consultant specializing in trees, shrubs, and natives with a passion for connecting people with plants. Heather relishes sharing her knowledge and experience by teaching at The Morton Arboretum, Chicago Botanic Garden, Olbrich Botanical Gardens, and Edith Farnsworth House as well as garden clubs, groups, and industry gatherings.

Please note that our LCAS meeting will be moving to Aspen Drive Library in Vernon Hills this month. We will be back at Cook Library for the December meeting, then at Aspen Drive for several months in 2025, due to planned construction at Cook Library.  Watch for info here or on our website for current meeting locations.
