Field Notes

Description:

Wooly butterfly bush is a medium-sized shrub native to the Chihuahuan Desert. It has small, gray leaves and attains a height of five feet with equal width. The leaves are covered with a layer of hairs giving them a wooly texture. The small, orange, tubular flowers are borne in rounded, ball-like clusters and provide a very pleasant, yet subtle scent. The flowers can be produced year-round, but spring and summer are more prolific.

Habitat:

Wildlife habitat yard on Belton Lake.
