This compact shrub is undemanding and easy to grow - and in summer, it's packed full of butterfly attracting flowers. Reaching just under a metre in height, what 'Little White' lacks in stature it more than makes up for in impact, and being so compact, it's easy to find a place for it - either in the border or on the patio.
