White Mist grows into a small shrub. It is deciduous. In a mild winter, if you don't cut it back, when spring arrives it will green up on the whole plant. In a cold winter, when spring arrives, it will come up from the roots.

Stinks So Good - White Mist Flower October 28, 2012
White Mist Flower stinks. It's pretty when it blooms in the fall, but it stinks. Insects are fiercely attracted to it, not the large butterflies, but the small skippers and other small insects. They buzz and flutter over it all day. Obviously it smells pretty good to them!
