Beautiful fragrant flower clusters attract butterflies to the garden. Lovely in summer bouquets and stunning in the flower garden, planted with bee balm, Shasta daisy, cranesbill, daylily and ornamental grasses. This cultivar is compact and quite weather tolerant. Remove faded flowers to prolong blooming.
