Wow dena how long it take you to have such a great butterfly garden.I hope to bring some button bushs to trade let me know if ya dont have one.

I've been butterfly gardening for 6 years now and believe it or not I'm still buying new plants. I bought false nettle this year to try to attract red admirals to my garden. I don't have a button bush yet. I've considered it several times. I'm not sure it will survive in my garden, since I don't ever water! But I would love to give it a try. Have you had it long?

I think the button bush will do fine here I got 2 cuttings from a friend and both took but hers is in blazing sun by her house were the ac drips .I might have mine in to much sun it was wilting today and its is still young ,(not many roots yet)but ill get some cuttings started for ya my friend has a big tree.I think the button bush is a tuffy they seem to do well almost anywhere.

Angie,

Dena what is a gulfcoast penstamon is that a pinifolius I have the yellow but would love the orange.Ill save ya a buttonbush .
