Mascagnia
macroptera ~ Butterfly Vine |
| Mascagnia macroptera, the
Butterfly Vine, is a great show for the semi-tropical garden. It is
the seedpods that look like butterflies. The seedpod will fade from
yellow-green to tan as it ages and is an entertaining addition to a dry
flower arrangement. Mascagnia macroptera is fairly thrifty in its
water requirements. The Butterfly Vine can bloom in the sun or
shade. The primary blooming period is during the Spring and
Summer. Mascagnia macroptera is hardy with temperatures that dip
into the low 20's.
