Description
The Black Swallowtail Butterfly is found from Southern Canada to northern South America. It is most common in the Eastern, Central and Southwestern parts of the United States.
In order to attract Black Swallowtails to your backyard you need to have their host plant (caterpillar food) in your garden. They have several different plants that the caterpillar will eat.
Their host plants include parsley, dill, bronze fennel, Queen Anne's Lace and Rue to name a few.
