Butterflies inside trellis

I just added a trellis to my garden to keep Tillandsia and Hoya and I noticed butterflies are attracted to the trellis.

Last week I found a Lemon Emigrant and a Painted Jezebel inside the trellis and a few days ago I saw a Common Palmfly inside.

If this continues I am going to have a high rise butterfly enclosure soon

I wonder what attracted them ?  Were they seeking shelter from the heat or were they after the butterfly plants I have in there ?
