This very hardy deciduous shrub grows much larger than most butterfly
bushes, and as a result blooms a lot more as well. It's wonderful fragrance
of course attract butterflies but is conveniently deer resistant. Plant it
with other shrubs the deer would normally munch on and they'll stay away.
Prune heavily in the winter for longer bloom periods. Makes perfect flowering
hedge rows or fence accents. These are about 2 ft. tall and shipped in
containers with a soilless media and a 9 month slow release fertilizer.
They will bloom this year.
