Answer
Hi Michelle,
Thanx for your questions.  

1.  I cannot tell you what kind of butterflies will be in your Las Vegas, Nevada area.  I am not a butterfly expert however, the folks at your University of Nevada Cooperative Extension Service in Las Vegas can probably help you with that.  Here is a link:

2.  It sounds to me like your wild flowers are coming along nicely.  The perenials such as coriopsis, blazing star and purple coneflower are perennial and will come back year after year.  

I hope this helps.
Tom
