Its sweet vanilla smell draws butterflies and hummingbirds, but this is one tough, versatile plant. Suitable for moist soil, such as next to a lake, but also tolerant of dry conditions. Excellent for everything from large landscape projects to naturalizing to cutflower arrangements.

Sweet Vanilla Butterfly Flower Customer Reviews

Butterfly magnet! Review by Patty Wise - Richland, MI
Posted on 2013-04-28 17:10:58

This plant was given to me and was small the first year but it sure pulled in the butterflies and hummingbirds. I had Monarchs and Viceroys the second year lay eggs with resultant catepillars. Wonderful plant!

This plant was slow growing at first, then grew to a full tall beauty. Make sure you do not plant anything else too close to it. Did extremely well in this unusually hot summer heat.

nice roots and now growing Review by Melissa - Dayton, OH

I ordered 2 of these items. I was very happy with the root system that was delivered. I have planted them and both plants emerged within 2 weeks. I am looking forward to seeing this plant as it grows.
