This App allows you take a picture of a plant or butterfly and it will tell you what type or species it is.

    Hyssop is amazing, butterflies love it. I agree with you, it attracts more butterflies than any other flower.

    Do you think they will like it as much in California?

    Yes, Hyssop is native to California and does well in zones 4-9, Lot's of butterflies love this flower including Monarchs, Swallowtails, Sulphurs and more. If you plant the first year may be a bit small and less flowering but by year two the flower should thrive and attract lots of butterflies. Sun and partial sun work great.
