More Information

Description You’ve probably never seen luxurious, massive white flowers like these on such a petite frame! Pugster White® only grows 2’ tall and 2-3’ wide, but its blooms are full-sized. Its stocky frame is built with sturdy stems, which are great for keeping it safe in winter and they make great cut flowers! But you won’t actually need to deadhead it at all for it to rebloom throughout summer and into fall. This tidy butterfly-attracting package is perfect for front of the border placement or it would perfectly complement other white flowers in a patio garden, where it's perfect for enjoying in the evening when it glows in the moonlight. Details Botanical name: Buddleia x SMNBDW
Patent #: PP 28,795
Common name: Butterfly bush
Zone: 5 - 9
Sun exposure: Sun (6+ hours sun)
Height x width: 2' x 2-3'
Flower color: White
Foliage color: Green
Season of interest: Summer-fall
Bloom time: Summer - frost
Features: Space savers, Proven Winners, low flammability, heat tolerant, fragrant, dry soils, drought tolerant, deer resistant, rabbit resistant, container plants, best for beginners
Uses: Accent, border, container gardening, cottage gardening, massing, small spaces
How To Grow Soil: Butterfly bushes require very well-drained, even dry, soils. Do not amend or add anything to the soil at planting time, as this can cause serious drainage problems. In clay soil, plant butterfly bush so they are slightly above, rather than even with, the soil.
Light: Full sun - at least six hours of bright sun each day is necessary for healthy plants and abundant blooms.
Water: Low to average watering; soil can even be dry once established. Butterfly bush does not tolerate wet conditions for any time.
Spacing: 2'
Fertilizing: Little needed; if desired, apply a granular rose or garden fertilizer in early spring.
Winterizing: In fall, plants can be trimmed lightly if desired, but save major pruning for spring. Do not fertilize in fall, and if mulching, do not apply heavily at the base of the plant.
Maintenance & pruning: Butterfly bushes are best pruned in spring, once the new growth has begun to emerge. At that point, cut just above where big, healthy buds appear. Give butterfly bushes plenty of time to emerge in spring, especially in colder climates - this may take several weeks, even if other plants in your yard are already leafing out.

Pugsters

So impressed with packaging and fast delivery. I could tell that plants were in great shape before packaging, too.
I unpacked immediately after delivery and watered both plants received. Unfortunately, only one of them has started to recover from the shock of climates, after watering both daily. I think one will make it, but the other is down to 2 leaves and no new growth
Since it hasn’t yet been 60 days, I’d like to get one more of these plants please.

Great plants

I’ve ordered from this company 3 different times this summer and all of the plants were packaged well and arrived looking great. They are thriving. Will definitely be ordering again. I love the plant book that came with my plants! Hence why I continued to order more :). Great company!

Pugster butterfly bushes were great, arrived exactly as advertised, and have already established and started thriving a month after planting. Highly recommend this seller.
