A sweet, little nectar bush reaching 18-24 inches tall and 30 inches wide, with lavender-pink, fragrant, long-blooming, flowers attractive to butterflies and hummingbirds. Very undemanding shrubs do not even require deadheading. Fantastic for mass plantings, borders and containers. Also lovely additions to perennial gardens.
