A prolific bloomer with incredibly dense full-sized spikes of fragrant amethyst-toned flowers with yellow eyes that bloom in summer attract pollinators and butterflies. Removing spent flowers can encourage continued blooms until frost. Best performance in sunny well-drained areas. Asexual Propagation is prohibited.
