I'm native to NY state

I attract butterlies, moths and hummingbirds.

My colors can vary from white to pink.

Don't mistake me for the highly invasive and non-native Dame's Rocket. You can easily tell us apart by our petals Dame's Rocket has four petals and Plox have five.

I spread by rhizomes to create clumps.
