Since the underlying plant is apparently Tropical, it ain't hardy in much of the US so I hope they lose their shirt. As if there are not enough beautiful MW species to plant now. Feh. And I simply cannot imagine growing a MW for foliage (other than for cats!). Wonder what the Monarch Cats think of this?


Everyone owns some plant that has been altered in some way. I can't believe people find this offensive? I'm going to buy some. By the way there are monarch breeding programs for white butterflies instead of orange, guess they'll match this plant 😉
