Butterfly Bush ‘Miss Ruby’ is a semi-evergreen shrub with lance-shaped, gray-green foliage adorned with fragrant, ruby-pink flower spikes in summer. Use in pots or borders as an accent plant. Full sun, attracts butterflies.
Performs best in enriched, well draining soil. Apply a flower fertilizer in spring. Promote blooms and a clean appearance by removing spent flowers. Prune in late winter to early spring.
These characteristics apply to the greater Sacramento area and nearby regions.
