Located just off TN Hwy 81 (W. Main Street) south of town at Britt Drive (which goes down the hill and west). The garden is being maintained on behalf of the town by Dr. Frances Lambert. It is split into three sections along the drive and entrance to the city water treatment facility. The planting is extensive as listed in the below “Types of Flora” field.

The garden is also listed at MonarchWatch.org run by the University of Kansas link which would be a good reference for the category. (Noting that only public locations can be waymarked.)

The pictures were taken a year before the Butterfly Gardens category was creating thinking that they would fit into some current group.

Address: 130 Britt Drive Jonesborough, TN

Types of Flora: Butterfly Milkweed, Cosmos, French Marigold, Zinnia, Bee Balm, Blazingstar/Gayfeather, Boneset, Coreopsis, Joe-Pye Weed, Mallow, New England Aster, Phlox, Purple Coneflower
