I've seen more butterflies this year in our yard than every before, mainly orange painted ladies. Perhaps a warm winter is good for butterflies. And now we're trying to make our yard an even better home for them. To our existing salvia, azalea, phlox, and butterfly bush, all of which are butterfly friendly, we added another salvia and an awfully-named scabiosa, or pin cushion plant. More beautiful purple!
Sounds pretty! We just purchased a butterfly bush and planted it on Sunday. It's small so I'm curious to see how long it will be before we see flowers.
