The Pugster® Blue Butterfly Bush is a breakthrough plant featuring full-sized, classic flower spikes that are sweetly scented and a deep, rich blue, on a compact bush that is only 2 feet tall and wide. It blooms from mid-summer right until the first hard frost, with a continuous succession of flower spikes on every stem. The gray-green foliage makes the perfect backdrop to the rich blooms, and this compact plant fits into any garden space, and it can even be grown in pots.
Plant the Pugster® Blue Butterfly Bush in full sun, in any well-drained soil, including dry and poor soils. Avoid damp soil and shady places and protect plants from cold in zone 5. Pests and diseases are normally never problems, and a simple spring pruning is all it takes to keep your plant vigorous and blooming profusely. We recommend removing the flower spikes as they go over, for appearance and to prevent seed production.
