Butterfly Bush
Currently unavailable
Buddleia BUZZ® Velvet represents an ideal choice for a compact patio butterfly bush, showcasing generously sized blossoms on a considerably smaller plant. Its flower spikes, measuring 6-8 inches, boast velvety magenta, purple, and blush tones, with a warm orange center. To stimulate re-blooming, simply trim away spent flowers and provide proper feeding. Typically, this particular variety offers a continuous blooming period of up to 5 months, casting the garden in vibrant hues from May through September. It's an excellent addition to pollinator gardens, drawing the attention of bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds, and it's known for its resistance to deer.
