Christia obcordata - Butterfly Plant or Swallowtail

The must-have for those who loves having 'butterflies' flying in their garden!
The charm of the Butterfly Plant is its leaf. You may have seen other butterfly-shape plants such as Purple Shamrock (Oxalis triangularis) or Red Butterfly Wing (Christia vespertilionis) but this Christia obcordata or Butterfly Plant is even more beautiful!

Unlike the purple and red butterflies, the green butterfly has the unique patterned leaves just like the wings of a butterfly. It is pleasing to the eyes to see its pattern change from a single maroon stripe on a bright green leaf to deeper color stripe pattern as it grows. The yellow-red color of the mature leaves is also amazing.

Christia Obcordata is a gorgeous plant native to Southeast Asia that is sure to attract attention with its slender stems and burgundy and fluorescent green foliage giving it the appearance of a colony of butterflies.
