One would need to have lots of flowers growing to attract the butterflies to start with. Getting caterpillars would help too. Growing the right kind of flowers that they feed on,like tulips. The butterflies would also lays their eggs on these flowers, which in turn would produce more butterflies. Swallowtail flowers are another good flower to attract the butterflies.

How do butterflies use energy and nutrients?

Adult butterflies do not eat plants but live on fluid nutrients gathered from flowering plants. Different species of butterflies favor different flowers. The flowers they feed on can grow on plants, shrubs, vines or trees. It is the caterpillar (larval stage of butterfly life cycle) that eats various parts of plants where its larvae will hatch. Nowadays, keeping a butterfly garden is quite a hobby wherein one can grow nectar-rich flower plants, provide host plants in the garden for the adult butterfly to lay its eggs and nurture its consequent life cycle. At the end of it, that's a garden full of vibrantly colored butterflies you will have!
