Grown at Hutchinson Farm since 2014. Available May 2021, in 4½" pots and planters.

  • Description
         Our most popular introduction of 2014. It’s commonly called a “Butterfly Flower” due to the butterfly shaped blooms that wave back and forth in the wind. The tall spires are perfect for adding height interest to your containers, but they will grow just about anywhere.

  • Growing Guide
    Heat and drought tolerant, maintenance free.
