About This

• [INFO1] - A 1928 hybrid butterfly bush from Good & Reese Nursery in Ohio, & is still one of the most desired of the hybrid butterfly bushes. Is a flowering shrub that is filled from summer to early fall with long panicles of beautifully fragrant, brilliant flowers. Though the name implies a red blossom, the bloom color will be more of a bright fuchsia bloom shade.
• [INFO2] - If you live in a colder zone, the tops in your butterfly plants will likely die back over the winter. Even so, they will come back the next growing season bigger & better then before. They require eight or more hours of sun a day to thrive. Bloom time for this beautiful flowering shrub is late June through September, and growing from 5 to 6 foot tall and 3 to 5 foot wide with age. Attract butterflies & hummingbirds like a magnet.
