Sangria Butterfly Bush is a compact well-branched shrub with a rounded habit and willowy green-green foliage. Its fragrant spike-like clusters of deep purple-red flowers bloom continuously from late spring into fall attracting butterflies. Removing spent flowers can encourage continued blooms until frost. Best performance in sunny well-drained areas.
