I just recently planted my potted garden its game is several fold. The first purpose is to attract various butterflies mainly swallow tails and the whites/sulfers. Its second purpose is to encourage these butterflies to lay eggs. Its third purpose is to be able to get some feeder catipillars (the whites and sulfers) *not the swallows*, and finaly its last purpose is to attract queen wasps to overwinter in the pots. I have pics and plants for ya.
