Butterfly Bush - Blue
Butterfly Bush - Blue
Attracts Droves of Butterflies

  (11 customer reviews)



Blossoms when most shrubs have finished flowering for the season--late summer--for a welcome flush of color. Arching sprays of foliage frame clusters of sweetly fragrant flowers that resemble lilacs. Perfume attracts droves of butterflies--that's exactly how this beauty got its name! At 6-10 feet, it makes a supremely colorful lot line screen. Prefers full to partial sun. Potted plants.

Zones 5-9.

Odd!
Reviewed By: Gale (Huntington, IN)
Odd, 2 reviews 4 days apart both written by Gale in Indiana. I looked up a lot of the names on the positive reviews in the white pages and could find noone with those last names in those cities or nearby. I guess all the reviewers must have unlisted numbers. Just seems odd.

Come on Butterflys
Reviewed By: Randy (Racine , Wis)
I've been wanting to attract Hummingbirds and Butterflys for years and finally got the courage to jump in and I got 4 of them. I received them early April and repoted them asap. I planted them outside 2 weeks ago and they're growing so fast! I've been a customer of Gurneys for 15 yrs. and have rarely been disappointed with their products.

I got this plant in late Feb, and went ahead and planted it. It sat there, green for a month, before I noticed a new leaf. Now its 2 months later, and it's finally growing, I'd say I have 6 in of new growth, and am really looking fwd to seeing some blooms later this season!
