1000 Butterflies

Created by the late Jack Lofthouse, of British Columbia, Canada, this exciting hybrid has very large flower trusses of over 30 florets to a truss. I can see how it received its name, and you will too! The plant will grow to 6 ft tall in 10 years, and flowers in April and into May. Hardy to zero degrees F. One of the parents of R. Fire Rim.
