An excellent fast growing, compact perennial shrub, perfect for massing in sun to dappled shade. Dark green, aromatic foliage is attractive year round. In spring to early summer, small orchid-like flowers attract butterflies and other pollinators. A great choice for informal screen, at the back of the border or container plantings.
