Comments (7)I ordered and planted 'Adonis Blue' in my garden last year. It only grew about 2' tall, and it was very thin, too. It never really had a chance, though, because my huge 'Sonset' lantana grows next to it, and it grew right over it pretty early in the season.

I think it really is a dwarf, though, because my other butterfly bushes grow to 9' or more each year even when they're close to other vigorous plants. I hope 'Adonis Blue' grows to a reasonable size this year, because I just LOVED the color of the blooms - they were a stunning shade of royal blue!
