Butterfly Bush 'Buzz Purple'

Butterfly Bush 'Buzz Purple' (Buddleja 'Buzz Purple'). The Buddleia 'Buzz Purple' offers an abundant bloom of long, rich purple panicles, much loved by butterflies. Its dwarf and compact habit makes it an ideal solution for small spaces, containers, or borders. It tolerates sun and dry soils well, while offering prolonged flowering from early summer until the first frosts. Easy to maintain and decorative in all seasons. The indicated adult size is 1 to 1.2 m (39 to 48 inches) in height and 1.2 m (4 feet) in width.

To plant 'Buzz Purple' butterfly bush, choose a suitable exposure: full sun. The recommended soil is as follows: neutral to slightly alkaline, well-drained. Water the root ball before planting and ensure that water can drain away after planting. During recovery, check the moisture by hand before watering again. Spread mulch around the base, leaving the collar clear. Avoid systematic fertilizer applications without considering the richness of the soil. In Quebec, choose a period when the soil is thawed and easy to work with.

Allow a width of 1.2 m (4 feet) to arrange the plant's space in the garden. The indicated height of 1 to 1.2 m (39 to 48 inches) helps to choose its position relative to neighboring plants. Keep access to the base for weeding, checking moisture, and removing damaged parts. Associate this variety with plants whose light and water needs are compatible. If you are considering a container, first check that its volume and drainage are suitable for root development. Potted roots are more exposed to cold than those planted in the ground.
