How to Use Perfecta Trifecta Butterfly Bush in the Landscape
These hardworking, gorgeous plants are perfect to use in large landscape garden borders. Or, try them as a fabulous "Thriller" in containers on the patio or on urban balconies. The container should be at least 12" in size. For best results in a larger container, purchase 3 or more plants and arrange them in a triangle formation.
Wherever you plant it, this fantastic colorway really opens up design possibilities. Pair with cool tones of Russian Sage or Coneflower or pop it against a wonderful contrasting yellow Black-Eyed Susan. Contrast the airy form against the sturdy stems of succulent Autumn Joy Sedum.
This is a fun plant to play around with! It's fast-growing, so expect it to give your garden border a full and lively look in no time. These Butterfly Bushes are must-haves for Cottage gardens, Pollinator borders, and hardy enough for Rock Gardens!
Bred to remain compact and tidy, you'll appreciate their trouble-free nature. If you can, place them near a window, so you can enjoy the butterfly show from inside your house, too. Perfecta Trifecta looks lovely among other flowering perennials as a mixed border!
#ProPlantTips for Care
This plant loves the sun! Plant it where it can soak in the sunshine. In addition to full sun, Butterfly Bush needs well-drained, medium-moisture soil to grow to its fullest potential. Provide a 3-4 inch deep layer of mulch to keep the roots happy!
In colder growing zones, this herbaceious perennial shrub will die back to the ground in winter. If they are in containers in a cold zone, plan to move the containers to an unheated, protected area, such as a garage or shed for winter.
Simply clip off any spent flower spires to encourage repeat blooming and to keep things tidy. Cut them back to ground level in early spring, and thrill at the sight of new spring growth. It will grow quickly back to its mature size in a single season.
This plant resists both deer and rabbits, but it will attract pollinators to your garden. Enjoy the wonderful sight, as butterflies come to sip nectar from this lovely food source.

When I first got the box and opened it, they were tough but now they look great
Bare-root and plug plants can look pretty rough right out of the shipping box, so it's great to hear yours bounced back and are looking great now. Butterfly bushes are tough once they settle in, and Perfecta Trifecta will really hit its stride as the season goes on. Thanks for the update, Karen!
Plant arrived in great condition and had a couple of blooms on it already. It's thriving even in this heatwave we are having in Ohio. It's blooming but I'm anticipating to see if it is a variated color bush like the ad said.
Butterfly bush are tough plants once they settle in, so it's a good sign yours hit the ground running through an Ohio heatwave. The variegated color mix really does show best as the plant matures and puts on more growth, so keep watching those new blooms. Thanks for sharing the update, Kathy. We hope the color display lives up to the anticipation! The Nature Hills Team
I ordered two bushes. The first one arrived with half the top soil spilled into the box. It looked small, about a foot and a half tall. But because it looked healthy I replaced the soil and planted it in a 20" pot. The second one arrived the next day and was in pretty good shape. This one was about 3 feet tall and I planted it in another 20" pot.
I understand that the content in the shipping can become disturbed, but I ordered 2 bushes expecting them to be of the same size and age. They obviously were not. Because of their guarantee I sent an email through their site (the same one requesting this review) requesting a replacement. This was over 2 weeks ago and I still haven't seen a reply to my email or the 3 follow-ups i sent.
Blooming well. Very happy.
Butterfly bushes can take a little time to settle in, so it's great to hear the Perfecta Trifecta is already putting on a show for you. Once it gets a full season of roots down, you'll likely see even more blooms. Thanks for sharing the update, Lori. The Nature Hills Team
This is very healthy butterfly bush.
Healthy arrival is exactly what we aim for, Katherine. The Perfecta Trifecta is a great choice for pollinators, and once it settles in and starts blooming, the butterflies will find it fast. Thanks for letting us know it arrived in good shape.
Plant arrived in excellent condition. I planted it right and it is growing well. Can’t wait to see it when it blooms. This is just one of several plants I have purchased from Nature Hills and every one has done well. Glad I found them.
Hearing that every plant you've ordered has done well means a lot, and the Perfecta Trifecta is a rewarding one to watch as it settles in. Butterfly bushes tend to really hit their stride in the second season once the roots are fully established, so the blooms should be even better next year. Thanks for sticking with us, Robert.
I bought the trifecta with two other butterfly bushes, and all were healthy. Two, including the trifecta were already in bloom when planted. Very happy with the plants and nursery.
Butterfly bushes already in bloom at planting time is a great sign of how well they were rooted before shipping. Glad the whole trio arrived healthy and hit the ground running. The Trifecta in particular puts on quite a show once it gets established, so you have a lot to look forward to. Thanks for sharing, Douglas, and enjoy the butterflies!
The plants arrived healthy and well packaged. Within a week they started blooming and already are attracting butterflies. Beautiful flowers, seamless purchase.
Butterflies showing up within the first week is a good sign the plants settled in quickly. Perfecta Trifecta is a strong bloomer and should keep putting on color well into fall, so you have a lot of season left to enjoy it. Thanks for the kind words, Karl. We hope your garden stays busy with visitors all summer.
Beautiful plant just starting to flower
Butterfly bush can take a little time to settle in after planting, so it's great to hear yours is starting to flower. Once it hits its stride you should see blooms well into fall, and the butterflies will find it fast. Thanks for sharing the update, Gary.
They sent me a all white butterfly shrub but I ordered tri colored. And tried calling and emailed but no response.
The bush was delivered in excellent condition and planted a few days later. Seems to be thriving.
Hearing that it arrived in good shape and is already settling in well is exactly what we hope for with every shipment. Butterfly bushes tend to take off quickly once they get their roots into the ground, so with some warm weeks ahead you should start seeing real growth soon. Thanks for the update, Peter.
Doing good, small yet but good colors. Can’t wait till all colors come in and it gets bigger
Butterfly bushes have a way of surprising you once they really settle in. Those colors only get richer and more abundant as the plant matures, so you have a lot to look forward to. Thanks for sharing the early progress, Daniel.
The bushes were delivered in perfect packaging. They are in our flower bed blooming. Thank you. 😊
Blooming already in the flower bed is about the best start a butterfly bush can have. The Perfecta Trifecta is a real pollinator magnet once it gets going, so keep an eye out for the visitors that will follow. Thanks for letting us know it arrived in good shape, GeorgeAnn, and happy growing!
so far so good. came packaged very well, healthy and in the ground and already flowering. :o)
Already flowering after going in the ground is a great sign, Catherine. Butterfly bush tends to settle in fast when it arrives healthy, and it sounds like yours hit the ground running. Thanks for the kind words, and enjoy the pollinators it will bring in. The Nature Hills Team
Perfect beautiful plant. Excellent delivery and will absolutely be looking to purchase with HB in future!
Butterfly bushes are such reliable bloomers, and it sounds like the Perfecta Trifecta is already off to a great start for you, Gayle. Once it gets established, it will put on more of a show each season. We look forward to growing your garden with you next time.
Smaller thanIthough but doing ok
Excellent plant
Perfecta Trifecta is a great choice, and we're glad it's off to a good start for you, Robert. It tends to really hit its stride once it establishes, so keep an eye out for those blooms and the pollinators that follow. Thanks for the note.
One of my three bushes didn’t arrive. It took me a little while to get in touch because spring is busy for a nursery, but once I did they replaced it no problem.
Spring really is the hardest time to get through to anyone in the plant world, so it's good to hear the team came through once you connected. Glad the replacement sorted things out, and we hope all three Perfecta Trifectas put on a great show for you this season. Thanks for sticking with it and sharing the experience, Maegan.
Started out ok. Followed inst. it died within a few weeks. Won’t order again.
Very healthy & growing great!!
Healthy roots make all the difference with butterfly bush, and it sounds like this one hit the ground running. Enjoy watching it fill in. The blooms attract a real variety of pollinators once it gets established. Thanks for the update, Sandra!
The butterfly bush is doing well so far!
Good to hear it is settling in well. Butterfly bushes tend to hit their stride once the roots get established, and you should start seeing real bloom power in the seasons ahead. Thanks for the update!
Just planted, it’s doing ok for now..
Plant dropped leaves in a few days after planting.
Small, very young, but healthy plants.
Very healthy and packaged well
They're growing...no flowers yet, but the plants are healthy and growing.
Healthy and growing is exactly where you want to be at this stage. Butterfly bushes tend to put their energy into establishing roots first, so once they settle in you should see blooms come on strong. Thanks for the update, Mendi, we hope the flowers put on a great show for you!
Bushes arrived well packed and very healthy. They have been repotted and are thriving!
