Butterfly Hollow
Friday July 6, 2012 at 9:30am
Jacksonville Zoological Garden
370 Zoo Pky
Jacksonville, Florida 32218 Get Directions
Wander down paths through a lush tropical forest and meadow, and enjoy a magical landscape with flowering plants that provide the nectar for hundreds of native butterflies. If you're very lucky, these delicate creatures may even land on your hand or nose. Let your imagination take flight as you look for fairy houses, garden art, water features, comfortable seating and beautiful arbors. Butterfly pupae will be on display inside the exhibit, so guests young and old can experience the wonder of the butterfly's life cycle. As the season progresses, new species will be added, so there is always a good excuse to come back and visit the Hollow again and again. Professor Wendy Perrywhistle, an expert on butterflies and the fairy world from Eldonshire, England, has posted her journal entries throughout the exhibit to help guests discover the butterflies and the important role they play in our environment. Visitors will also see evidence of gnomes and trolls that will help tell the story about butterflies and the environment they live in. Butterfly Hollow is open from 9:30 am until a half hour prior to closing each day.
