XL Mylar Packet – None So Pretty Catchfly SeedsGold Vault Mylar Zip Packet Though it soon escaped and began growing in the wild, this flower originally came to America in the early 19th century from the gardens of Europe. Because of its sticky stem that can entrap tiny insects, this family of plants earned the common name Catchfly. This particular species is sometimes called Lobel’s Catchfly after Matthias de Lobel, a well known 16th century botanist.
