    Grapes

    I've always had a fascination with those who can successfully grow grape vines year after year. I haven't the slightest idea how to start myself, though, so any beginner tips?

    Butterflies

    When I was growing up, we always seemed to have tons of butterflies in our yards and gardens. I don't seem to have that now, though, so what should I do to attract them more?

    Just make it yourself! It doesn't even need to be red....they'll be attracted anyway, so no worries about that. Look up a recipe for the exact proportions of sugar and water.
