I would choose a nettle, as Admiral Butterflies do. There flowers aren’t extravagant but the poison tipped spines are very good protection.
Which nettle you may ask (as there are many)
Ideally Urtica sykesii for its beautiful triangular leaves perfectly embellished with triangular edges which itself have beautiful spikes (one of my favorite plants).
For added protection the most dangerous nettle Urtica ferox a nettle so big it has become a woody tree with thick spikes as long as your nose, loaded with enough poison to kill a dog or leave a man limp for weeks (I would make sure no dogs are harmed). The beautiful red admirals favorite choice.

Nice! That was a fascinating way to look at it. Makes sense too.
