Tracie,
One of the problems with common names is that they can mean different plants
in different areas. There is a plant called Cat Whiskers, botanical name
Oithosithon, which is grown here in the Houston TX area. I haven't tried it
myself, but it is a beautiful plant with large feathery white flowers. I
don't believe it is hardy here, but I think you can take cuttings in the fall
and root them for the next year. You might try posting this question on a
Southern Gardening list if you don't get more responses here. Then again, it
could be something else, like the cleome that was suggested. Sorry I
couldn't help you more, but good luck!
