Bring fragrance, color, and pollinator activity to your garden with Incense Bush, a greenhouse-grown starter live plant prized for its aromatic foliage, cascading spikes of lavender-purple flowers, and long blooming season. Iboza riparia, commonly known as Incense Bush, is a tender perennial shrub in the mint family that makes a stunning addition to pollinator gardens, cottage gardens, tropical landscapes, and patio containers. Its nectar-rich flowers attract hummingbirds, bees, butterflies, and other beneficial pollinators. With proper care, it may produce blooms under suitable growing conditions.

Iboza riparia thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers fertile, well-draining soil with regular moisture. Its soft, fragrant foliage adds year-round interest, while elegant arching flower spikes bloom from late summer into fall, creating a spectacular display when many other plants are slowing down. In cooler climates, Incense Bush grows beautifully in containers and can be overwintered indoors.
