Butterfly Daisy helping save Monarchs.
One Caterpillar at a Time.

Welcome to Butterfly Daisy Nursery and Sanctuary – Where Passion Takes Flight

Nestled in the heart of Seminole, Florida, Butterfly Daisy Nursery and Sanctuary began as a personal tribute to my beloved mother in June 2020. What started as a small butterfly garden planted in her memory soon blossomed into a life-changing journey.

The turning point came just a few months later, in September, when I noticed a cluster of caterpillars feasting on a single, unassuming plant—Milkweed. That moment of discovery unveiled the magic of the Monarch butterfly, a lifelong favorite of mine. Their transformation captivated me, and since that day, I’ve had the incredible honor of raising and releasing over 5,000 healthy Monarchs back into the wild.

Inspired by this profound connection, I officially founded Butterfly Daisy Nursery in October 2021. Our mission is simple but powerful: to protect pollinators by providing safe, pesticide-free Milkweed for Monarch caterpillars and offering a rich source of nectar for butterflies, bees, and other essential wildlife.

We are proud to be:

  • A licensed Florida Nursery Florida Department of Agriculture Registration # 48027747

  • A certified Monarch Waystation

  • A USDA Permit P526 holder

But Butterfly Daisy is more than a nursery—it’s a place of purpose, education, and restoration. We’re dedicated to sharing knowledge and encouraging others to create their own pollinator havens. From hosting butterfly releases to offering vibrant photos and educational resources, we invite you to experience the wonder of nature up close.

Our growing selection of Florida Native Wildflowers and host plants ensures your garden will not only flourish but also support pollinators year-round. Whether you’re starting from scratch or looking to expand your native plant collection, we’re here to help every step of the way.

We welcome your support! Donations help us maintain our sanctuary and continue educating others about the importance of preserving pollinator habitats.

Join us on this journey of transformation, healing, and hope. At Butterfly Daisy Nursery and Sanctuary, we don’t just grow plants—we grow a movement to protect the magic of butterflies for generations to come.
