Scrophulariaceae
Buddleia 'Blueberry Pie', or 'Blueberry Pie' butterfly bush, is a compact and very floriferous shrub, appreciated for its dense panicles of deep violet-blue flowers, reminiscent of the color of ripe blueberries. Its abundant summer flowering, fragrant and rich in nectar, intensely attracts butterflies and pollinators, bringing life to flowerbeds throughout the season. Its rounded and well-branched habit, more contained than that of classic buddleias, makes it ideal for small gardens, sunny borders or pot cultivation. The grayish-green foliage highlights the depth of the flowers and brings a soft texture to the decor. Easy to grow and very responsive to spring pruning, 'Blueberry Pie' offers generous flowering in a controlled format, perfect for contemporary or urban spaces.
