Queen of Hearts Butterfly Bush

This cultivar is a rounded clump of green foliage that produces massive amounts of seven to nine inch long vibrant magenta panicles from late summer to early fall. These flowers are greatly appreciated by bees, butterflies and hummingbirds for their honey scent. It is quite compact, very short at a height of three feet, but perfect for adding a splash of color in the garden. It thrives in full sun with well-drained soil.
