#ProPlantTips for Care:
Butterfly Bushes are wonderfully easy to grow and drought and deer-tolerant once established. Plant Buddleia in full sun and well-drained moderately moist soil. Use Nature Hills Root Booster at the time of planting and top off with a 3-4 inch layer of mulch to retain moisture and insulate the roots.
In cooler growing zones Buddleia act like herbaceous perennials and die back near the ground, so in very early spring, before you see new growth, prune the entire plant near the ground to ensure an even new flush of growth each year. In warmer climates, trim any of the winter dieback off once new growth appears in spring. Deadhead spent blossoms to keep new ones returning until frost!
- Full Sun Perennial/Shrub
- Adaptable to a Wide Variety of Conditions!
- Well-Drained Moderately Moist Soil
- Prune Back In Early Spring
- Deer & Rabbit Seldom Bother These Plants!
