It forms low mounds of deeply lobed, bright green leaves that serve as a backdrop for its fragrant clusters of lilac-colored flowers. Blooming from spring to fall, these flowers attract bees, butterflies, and other pollinators and beneficial insects. Growing up to a tidy 2 feet in height and spread, this beauty thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, making it ideal for a vibrant, low-maintenance garden.
