    I believe we have white and a pinkish purple. Yes, the butterflies are all over them.

    Oh, cool - if they are where Pinot can see them from a window, that must make for riveting kitty tv!

    Buddleia? My mom and dad's neighbor in Berwyn had a couple of them and they grew like crazy, low and wide. She liked them because they added color to her garden. I'm not sure how many butterflies she attracted, though.

    Aaahh, I have been defrosted! Thank you, Bonny and Asiel!

    "That's the power of kittens (and puppies too, of course): They can reduce us to quivering masses of Jell-O in about two seconds flat and make us like it. Good thing they don't have opposable thumbs or they'd surely have taken over the world by now." -- Paul Lukas

    Now the spammers are calling them hummingbird vines - I am guessing it's the same thing, I have not bothered opening the emails to see. And it's funny, some have subject lines like, "grows well anywhere" to which I mentally respond, "Well, yeah - it's a weed!"
