Description
A compact shapely bush with full sized, graceful, tapering flower spikes. Blooms are perfumed and attractive to butterflies, small birds and insects.
Cultural Notes
Most soil types are suitable; an application of a complete fertiliser to the garden bed in spring after the main pruning promotes vigorous growth. In winter temperatures to 5°C are tolerated but heavy frosts will cut them back. During the year trim back the older growth when flowers are showing signs of slowing off and getting smaller. The use of a slow release fertiliser is recommended for pot grown specimens.
Landscape Ideas
Buddleja are great for growing in large pots or in various sunny positions in the garden. Buddleja are terrific as a massed border planting or in a mixed garden in full sun to partial shade.
