#ProPlantTips for Care:

Butterfly Bushes are wonderfully easy to grow! All they ask for is full sun and steady water during their first year! Once established, Buddleia are low-water usage but do appreciate supplemental moisture during drought and the summer months to keep the flowers returning until frost. Provide a 3-4 inch deep layer of arborist mulch to support your shrub's root system. Like most butterfly favorites, this deciduous plant is drought tolerant and not on any deer's menu of favorite snacks.

Like all Proven Winners® Buddleias, there is no deadheading required to keep them blooming all season for you! You will want to cut these plants back to the ground in early spring when grown in colder climates because these act more like an herbaceous perennial. For plants grown in warm growing zones, these are woody shrubs that only need an early spring trim will help ensure the best performance and best flowers.

• Well-Drained Soil
