Description
Black Knight Butterfly Bush stands out with its deep purple, almost black flowers that bloom from mid-summer to mid-fall. The long, fragrant flower spikes attract butterflies, adding movement and life to the garden. This vigorous variety benefits from being cut back in early spring to promote lush, new growth.
Black Knight Butterfly Bushes are known for their ability to thrive in various conditions while attracting pollinators. They require full sun and well-drained soil, making them an excellent choice for Massachusetts landscapes. Their upright, spreading growth habit makes them a striking feature in mixed borders or perennial beds.
