Wowie!! That blue is vibrant on that RSP!!! Sure wish we would get those here.

Yes, clammy weed is a larval host for Cabbage White, Checkered White and Great Southern White but I've not noticed any caterpillars on them nor have I noticed eaten leaves...yet. Will keep looking though :o)

By the way, it is a stinky plant! It has really pretty clusters of flowers though. I was quite taken aback when I got an up close look - whoda thunk it would have purple, turquoise and maroon anthers or are they stigmas, stamen or pistels? - which are totally contrasted by the white flowers!

Puts out lots of seeds too.
