Perennial (P)
Sometimes called Orange Milkweed, this hearty, drought-proof perennial is intensely attractive to butterflies and other beneficial garden insects. Unlike other members of the Milkweed family, Butterfly Weed does not issue a milky sap when broken. Waxy green stems to 70cm (27”) tall are topped by vivid orange flower clusters. Grown in small clusters, this plant attracts butterflies like no other, even in urban gardens.
