This is the bush you should plant: Pink Butterfly in no time

🤩 This is the bush you should plant: Pink Butterfly in no time

  • 🎀 Pink Butterfly Bush (Clerodendrum mastacanthum, Rotheca mastacantha) is a rare and exciting new addition to the plant world, originating from South Africa.

  • 🎀 It closely resembles the more common Blue Butterfly Bush (Clerodendrum ugandense) but stands out with its stunning pink flowers.

  • 🎀 The pink blooms are arranged in tighter panicles, giving the plant a more compact appearance.

  • 🎀 While the size of the flowers is a bit smaller than its blue counterpart, the vibrant color and unique charm make it a captivating choice for your garden. Its rarity and beautiful blossoms make the Pink Butterfly Bush a standout plant for rare plant collectors.

  • 🎀 Very fast growing and vigorous bush! Perfect when you need a screen plant or a showy specimen quickly.


🎈 These two varieties of Clerodendrum must go together - Blue Butterfly and Pink Butterfly - perfect combination! The flowers and butterfly-like shape attract butterflies and other pollinators to the garden. So these plants are all about butterflies!

Give yourself a cat

Give yourself a cat
🐈 Give yourself a cat

If sorrow nears your heart,
if life’s rush feels too tart,
If the world looks bleak and gray -
Give yourself a cat today.

Do not stint. This gift's profound -
A splendid investment found.
Cats have no brands or breeds,
Only warmth and softness leads.

Feeling ill? Place a cat where it hurts, watch the pain scatter.
Forgive in advance its mischief for a year, no matter,
Its playfulness, wicked genes, the devilish feline spree.
A cashmere-clad wicked genius, compelling all to see love's decree.

  • 💋 It blooms from Winter to Spring, offering a spectacular view!

  • 💋 Graceful branches are densely covered with vibrant flowers before the new leaves begin to regrow after winter.
