Birthday Cake Butterfly Bush is a fast-growing deciduous shrub with an upright habit and narrow grey-green foliage. Its long upright panicles of mild but sweetly fragrant bright purple flowers with orange eyes bloom all summer into fall, attracting bees and butterflies. Best performance in sunny well-drained areas. Good drought tolerance.
