Companion Plant Ideas
This Butterfly Bush`s purple blooms look even prettier combined with the golden shades of Goldsturm Black Eyed Susan (Rudbeckia fulgida var. sullivantii `Goldsturm`) or the lighter yellow hues of Moonbeam Threadleaf Coreopsis(Coreopsis verticillata `Moonbeam`). The dark lavender flowers of Goodwin Creek Gray Lavender (Lavandula dentata `Goodwin Creek Gray`) combine well with the group.
