Product Description
BUDDLEIA: Graceful gray-green foliage arches with flowers from summer into fall. The common name aptly describes this garden beauty. It does not wake up until late spring, but it’s worth the wait! Flowers form on current growth. Should be cut back to 12-18” each spring. Will quickly grow back with many flowering canes.
Buddleia Monarch® Collection Butterfly Bush is a brand new selection that grows into the most delightful flowering bush any gardener could ask for. A fresh shade of light pink for the MONARCH® Collection! 8" long, light appleblossom pink flower panicles are produced above a round habit of dark green foliage. This perfectly rounded shrub maxing out at about 5 feet tall will be graced with long 7-9” flower panicles all summer long. These incredibly fragrant flowers smell better than any butterfly bush we’ve stuck our noses into – a sweet honey, vanilla floral fragrance. Many butterfly bushes produce scant flowers and can become very large and unmanageable, but the Princess Pink produces flowers from the top to the bottom and on all sides.
Butterfly Bushes have certainly earned their place in the garden over the years, and its easy to see why. Just when we need a breath of fresh air in the late summer heat, they happily burst into bloom. At a time when many other plants are already spent, buddleias are just beginning their show. Their passive coloring and texture makes a wonderful backdrop for perennials, and you'll love the butterflies, bees, and hummingbirds that flock to their honey-scented blossoms.
