Ruellia White Bush

This graceful, bushy Ruellia bursts with crisp white blooms that contrast beautifully against deep green, lance shaped foliage. A heat-loving, low maintenance perennial, it thrives in full sun to part shade and blooms continuously from spring through fall. Ideal for borders, mass plantings, or containers, the white Ruellia attracts butterflies and adds a clean, elegant touch to garden beds. Drought-tolerant once established and deer resistant, it's a dependable choice for Southern landscapes.
