Making your garden a good habitat for moths

You can encourage moths to your garden by growing a selection of good nectar plants for them including honeysuckle, evening primrose, petunias, buddleia, night scented stock and campion.  Growing some larval food plants is also really important.  Most caterpillars feed on our native plants, both herbaceous wildflowers and shrubs and trees.  Growing some wildflowers and having a hedge of hawthorn and other wild shrubs will encourage these beautiful insects to your garden.
