This large, easy to grow shrub is valued for its summer flowers. The flower color varies with the cultivar but Petite Snow has 6-8" snow white, cone-shaped flowers.  Flowering occurs from

summer to fall.

  Butterfly bush blooms best on new wood, which is the current season's growth.  In winter or early spring, cut off all the previous summer's growth, leaving about a foot of live buds behind to produce next year's growth. If you fail to do this the plants can grow into over-large thickets of spindly wood that won't produce the big bold flower clusters you want.  In northern climates, the shrub may simply die back to ground level

in the winter.  Also, butterfly bush is late to leaf out in the spring, so don,t give up on it - just give it more time!


The wonderfully fragrant flowers attract butterflies, hence the common name, with the grayish-green foliage providing a great background for the flowers.

Be prepared for an education because you will be pleasantly surprised at how many butterflies types show up that you may never have seen before!

Hibiscus is an easy-going shrub... maintenance free and drought resistant,

it is an ideal addition to foundation plantings, along driveways,

or in mixed borders.

Hibiscus is a sleepyhead that leafs out

late in the spring. Though normally large,

it can be kept smaller with trimming.  Since it blooms on new growth,

there will still be plenty of flowering.  

It can even be pruned into a small tree.

Blushing Bride hibiscus has 4-inch double pink flowers that fade to white.  It blooms throughout summer and fall.
