Plant that attracts butterflies

Recommended Posts

We have a very common shrub in our garden that you see everywhere. No idea of the name but the flowers can be red , orange or yellow.

 

These attract butterflies which then lay larve everywhere. When these hatch they can eat their way right through the bush overnight !! You go to bed with a bushy shrub and next morning it is stripped bare. Wife hand picket about a dozen green caterpillars well girged from their feast.

 

The plant recovered but it took about 6 weeks.
