Butterfly Weed

I do like this, I took a cutting from a supermarket car park earlier in the summer....sadly it didn’t make it!!

Hi Kate! This is one plant I couldn't propagate for all the tea in China! I planted a whole pack of seeds - - nothing! It's always the odd one that pops up now and again that do very well. I'd be tempting fate if I tried to move it.

I can understand you not wanting to ‘touch’ it! I saw it a while ago as I parked up to pop in to the supermarket to grab a cold drink. I discreetly got my scissors out and snipped a piece of the Bush. Then I put it in a clear bag with some of my bottled water. Anyway, following the usual planting it in a pot etc..it wilted and just withered.
I really like the look of it too. The lovely warm summer colour and instant insects...never mind. I can admire yours!
