Blaze Pink Butterfly Bush is a well branching shrub with an upright spreading habit and willowy green-green foliage. Its fragrant spike-like clusters of magenta to hot pink flowers with orange eyes bloom from late summer into fall attracting butterflies. Removing spent flowers can encourage continued blooms until frost. Best performance in sunny well-drained areas.
