No plant attracts more butterflies than a butterfly bush! Hummingbirds also love the large panicles of nectar-filled flowers. Excellent as cut flowers to bring indoors. True to its name, this butterfly bush produces 6 to 12 inch panicles with bright magenta flowers. With a compact habit that features stronger branching, you'll find its fragrant, honey-scented flowers at stem ends very attractive to butterflies and hummingbirds. A perfect addition to any butterfly or cottage garden, when other plants are spent, butterfly bushes are just beginning their show! Your guests won't be able to resist admiring the beautiful plant and its wonderful fragrance. Plant it near a window or porch so you can sit and enjoy the sweet fragrance all summer. These perennial workhorses bloom from summer to fall, keeping your garden bustling with life for months on end. Established plants require little maintenance and thrive in the landscape for years. Includes two actively growing plants in 2.5" grow pots.
