A similar plant... but a terrible one.

There is a similar plant, the "Dutchman’s pipe", Aristolochia_littoralis, BUT it is toxic to butterflies. Sadly, it is simialr enough that the butterflies lay their eggs on it. When the larvae hatch, they eat the plant, and it kills them. I think that that should be mentioned here. I am not capable of doing that. 2001:8003:E490:7D01:22:E70B:5C57:D389 (talk) 09:43, 29 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
