Lespedeza thunbergii 'Gibraltar' (Pink Bush Clover)
Sun to Part SunZone: 4-9 72" tall Origin: Japan
Found at the old Gibraltar estate in Wilmington, Delaware, this spectacular lespedeza was selected and named by plantsman Bill Frederick. Our plant graces the top of our grotto with pea-like foliage on long, arching branches. Emerging from the ground each season, the branches quickly reach 6' tall x 12' wide. In late summer and fall, the branches are laden with thousands of lavender-pink flowers...a great arching effect for a wall or mixed into a perennial border. Visitors who see this plant in flower have a quick attitude adjustment about lespedezas! Pot size: 24 fl. oz (709.77 ml)
