We have something that looks very similar but it is called Oxalis!

I was going to say, our butterfly plant is green leafed with orange flowers. But in different parts of the counrty, I am sure there are diiferent plants by the same 'common' name. In any case, I'm sure the butterflys will love it!

I agree with Helen - the plant pictured here looks to me like an ornamental oxalic, not a Christia, which has unequal sized leaflets and a cluster of flowers.

if you look at the flower, you can see that this butterfly plant is really an Oxalis and not a Christa!
