True Blue Butterfly Bush

Small blue flowers on large panicles bloom against silver grey foliage from summer until frost. Has strong stems and upright habit and matures at 4 to 6 feet tall and 6 feet wide. Great for borders and landscape plantings.

For new plantings
1. Dig a hole one and a half times wider than the plant's container
2. Place plant in hole, keeping the top of the root ball ground level
3. Back fill with dirt
4. Water thoroughly and then mulch around the base to conserve moisture and reduce weeds
New plantings require more frequent watering than established plants. Wind, temperature and soil are factors to consider in watering.
Feed plants in early spring and again in early fall with an all-purpose fertilizer, following label instructions.

Care Guide
To take care of a Buddleia plant, ensure that it is planted in well-drained soil in an area exposed to full sun. If you live in a cold climate area, try planting it in a sunny spot sheltered from cold winds. Prune your plant regularly to keep it from getting too tall and out of control. Water regularly and feed once a month using an all-purpose fertilizer. Remove dead flowers constantly to promote more blooms and cut back hard in the late winter or early spring to encourage new growth.
