I have many different types of "butterfly bushes," each for attracting a different target group.


Milkweed (Asclepias sp.) is the most common. I have had hairstreak, Gulf Fritillary, Clouded Sulfer and various swallowtail butterflies, as well as milkweed assassins, oleander aphids and brown lacewings on my Asclepias curasavica milkweed bushes. My false nettles (Boehneria cylindrica) are host plants for Red Admiral butterflies and a certain species of wasp. They also attract a variety of wasps, green bottle flies and leafhoppers.
