The gardening world is all a”buzz” for this new twist on a much-loved garden favorite. The Buddleja Buzz® series are semi-evergreen shrubs that exhibit the same colorful splendor of standard sized butterfly bushes but in a compact form growing to only 3-4’ tall and wide making it a perfect choice for patio containers or smaller sized gardens. An abundance of fragrant deep-magenta colored flower spikes appear above the foliage from June through October and are an absolute favorite for butterflies as well as attracting bees and hummingbirds. Takes well to shearing and removing spent blooms will help prolong the blooming period. Prefers a well-drained soil and a full sun to light shade exposure.
