Description
2000 Perennial Plant of the Year. 'Butterfly Blue' got its name for a reason - gorgeous 2 inch lavender blue flowers bring the butterflies to gardens and containers. Reaches 12 to 18 inches at maturity. Mounds of foliage are blanketed with long-blooming flowers from mid-spring to early fall. (Summer dormant in warmer climates.) Deadhead for the longest blooms, and 'Butterfly Blue' makes a long-lasting cut flower too. Great for combinations, in borders and in cutting gardens, 'Butterfly Blue' prefers full sun and is hardy in Zones 3 to 9.

Growing Info
Proper care of plants beyond delivery is the responsibility of the gardener. Liner tray plants can be planted directly into the landscape, but will require proper care and increased attention as they establish.
