Orange Sceptre Butterfly Bush

$44.99

Orange Sceptre is an ever blooming butterfly bush. The soft, felty leaves are more green than gray but have that Lamb’s Ear look and feel to them. The 1' long terminal spikes of bright orange flowers open from the bottom to top. 

Care

Prefers well-drained, fertile soil. Water deeply, regularly during first growing season to establish extensive root system; reduce frequency once established. Clip spent flowers to promote continued bloom. May die to the ground in colder zones, regrowing from the roots in spring. Elsewhere, prune in late fall or early spring. Feed in spring. Best grown in zones 7B to 10.

Toxicity

Deer resistant. Generally considered non-toxic to both dogs and cats though they might cause mild GI upset if ingested.

Three gallon shrubs are not available for shipment from online orders.
