About Gay Butterflies

A citrusy mix of Meyer lemon, tangerine, and orange-colored blooms make this a fiery addition to the pollinator garden. Plants stand 24 to 28 inches tall, topped with cheerful sunshine tones and absolutely buzzing with pollinator action as they bloom from mid to late summer. The fragrant flowers are irresistible to butterflies, hummingbirds, bees, and other beneficial insects. This is an absolute must-have for promoting pollinator diversity in the garden. It is also a host plant for the imperiled monarch caterpillar. Try these fairly drought-tolerant plants in beds, borders, planters, and the landscape or meadow. Perennial in zones 3-9
