Category:

Fast-growing deciduous shrub to 5’ tall and wide. This attractive variety features silvery-gray foliage accented with masses of delightfully fragrant plum-colored flowers that attract butterflies and hummingbirds summer to fall. Prune in late-fall to encourage a more compact stronger blooming plant. Great as an accent or colorful backdrop to annuals and perennials does well in containers and makes a good cut flower. Prefers a well-drained soil and has relatively low water needs once established though a more lush-looking plant is achieved with regular watering. Full to partial sun.
