  • Heard Museum: Native Texas Butterfly House & Garden

    The Native Texas Butterfly House & Garden invites visitors to immerse in the beauty of free-flying native butterflies and other pollinators. Housing a variety of native species that change with the seasons and availability, this serene location also features a flourishing butterfly garden. The garden is dedicated to host plants that naturally attract these graceful creatures, offering guests insightful inspiration for their own gardens.

    Additionally, the serene ambiance of the butterfly house and garden provides an ideal backdrop for nature photography and portraiture, with a modest fee required for the latter. While the butterfly house operates seasonally and closes during the off-season, the butterfly garden welcomes visitors all year, with its plant life and butterfly inhabitants varying according to the season.
