About the
Butterfly Bush - White Bouquet :
The Butterfly Bush 'White Bouquet',
Buddleia 'White Bouquet', has fragrant,
white flower panicles 8-12" long form on
this somewhat compact growing butterfly
bush. It is a vigorous growing shrub that
boasts white flowers from mid-summer and is
a butterfly magnet. This bush flowers summer
and fall and is easy to grow. With a name
like Butterfly Bush you might expect a plant
to be attractive to butterflies. In fact,
it's more than attractive; it's a magnet for
all the butterflies that pass through your
garden seeking nectar.
This deciduous bush blooms mid-summer to
early fall. Butterflies and bees will flock
to the honey-scented blossoms, whose dilute
nectar is sweetest in midday sun. Plant it
near a path or patio and the shrub will
provide a delightful fragrance for you, too.
It's generally pest-free. This plant blooms
on new growth and should be pruned back to
the ground in spring.
