Out at our local park this plant is growing along the creek beds. The blooms are a pretty pinkish-mauve color and it grows about 6-7 feet high. Tiger Swallowtails are all over it as are many other butterflies, bees etc.

Would like to know what it is to see if it would grow in my garden....

I hate losing plants....I know they are "just plants" but when you nurse them along and baby them and get them to grow, bloom, and be pretty and they die....it's like losing a friend..... Crying
