now how do you like the name on this beauty: Whirling Butterflies Wand Flower - white fading pink, only a few flowers open at a time along reddish stalks with new ones opening as stalks grow throughout long bloom during most of summer where nights are cool; flowers appear to be whirling butterflies, hence the name; flowers about 1" long with 4 reflexed petals. I like the genus name too: genus name from gauros meaning "superb".
