Why Dutchman's Pipe is the best butterfly attracting vine? Smell it!
Without any doubt, Aristolochia, or Dutchman's Pipe, is one of the best butterfly plants.
  • 🍃 Aristolochia trilobata - Birthwort Dutchman's Pipe is celebrated for its unique and intricate flowers that resemble Dutch smoking pipes, hence its name.
  • 🍃Dutchman's Pipe flowers emit a scent mimicking decaying matter, which certain butterfly species, like the Pipevine Swallowtail, find irresistible 💩🙄
  • 🍃The butterflies lay their eggs on the plant, as it serves as a suitable host for their larvae, contributing to the plant's ecological significance by promoting pollination and biodiversity.
  • 🍃 As a result, it not only beautifies gardens but also supports local butterfly populations, enriching the ecosystem.
  • 🍃 Beyond its distinctive appearance, it's valued for its historical use in traditional medicine, particularly for its alleged healing properties.

🍇 What is Jaboticaba? I like the sound of this word! 😁

Jaboticaba (Myrciaria cauliflora) is the most popular native fruit of Brazil that famous Brazilian Vine La Vino Tinto is made of!🍷

  • 🟣 Grape-like purple fruit with a thick skin and delicious melting pulp somewhat resembling Northern Black Currant in flavor.

  • 🟣 Trees grow very slowly and due to small leaves and dwarfish growth habit are often used as bonsai. Some old bonsai specimens can fruit.

  • 🟣 Larger specimens are very valuable because it takes Jaboticaba up to 7 years from seed to start fruiting.

  • 🟣 Similar to Mamey, Jaboticaba has cauliflorous fruit - that grow on main stems or woody trunks.

  • 🟣 Jaboticaba is relatively cold hardy, mature trees are taking down to 23 F for short periods without serious damage.
