I just found a super comprehensive list of butterfly host plants...
35 plants listed for the buckeye butterfly!

It's a document, so you'll need to print it out... 17 pages with my machine...
find the "butterfly caterpillars and their larval plants" link on this "Gardeners of Southwest Florida meetup page of 2 files...
http://www.meetup.com/FloridaG...

Took a bit of searching to get to the page of files from google's link... but I'm not going to post a direct download link...

May have to take their recommendations with a pinch of salt... They've listed fennel, passionflower for the monarch ... a bit of careful editing woulda placed those plants with the correct butterflies.
