Ageratina ligustrina

One of the very best plants for attracting bees and butterflies, this is an unusual, evergreen shrub with dark green leaves and long lasting, large, flattened, white flower heads in late summer.

These flowers can last well until late autumn or even Christmas in a very mild year.

A charming evergreen shrub, excellent as part of a flowering border and good for attracting wildlife into a garden! Can be grown in a large container.
