PETITTI Butterfly Bush | Grow Buddleia for Repeat Blooms, Deer Resistance & Pollinators

Thank you Noelle. I needed help with pruning my new Miss Violet butterfly bushes. Now I know to let them be until early spring, then prune them down to the new growth.

Thank you for the information, I just planted this fall so this is what I needed to know for their care. Hugs and love from Texas!

Beautiful!! These will be planted in my garden soon..spring is latest. So lovely .. Cosmos are also lovely

This plant has been declared as invasive in many States and does not provide adults a host plant for their young. There are better native options. Milkweed will provide a natural host plant for monarchs and is a better choice as B. bush does not.

Which fertilizer for the butterfly bush? I have the purple one which does not seem to grow at all

[@PetittiGardenCenters]

We recommend using Espoma Plant-tone!

What is plant tone and iron tone fertilizer?

[@rdarrett3635]

I have the Pugster, Lo and Behold and Miss Series. Which one is sterile?

[@butterflybush8981]

From what I know - The ones you have mentioned are newer varieties - most of them are sterile - no reseeding.
