- Botanical Name: Christia obcordata
- Common Names: The Butterfly Plant
- Description: Butterfly plants are relatively easy to care for. Simply find that perfect nook that receives bright, indirect light. Once you find the perfect spot, the only thing left to do is the occasional watering when needed. The butterfly plant is great indoors because it thrives in warmer conditions and with consistent watering. They can survive year-round outside in warmer climates, closer to the equator. They can grow up to 12 inches tall in ideal conditions and are a real show stopper.
