Proven Winners 2 gal. Potted Buddleia Shrub

The Proven Winners Buddleia Plant is a butterfly bush (Buddleia davidii). It's a beautiful, fast-growing, deciduous shrub with masses of blossoms alongside spiked trusses that bloom from summer to autumn. Its flowers come in many colors, though butterflies seem to prefer the lavender-pink (mauve) of the species to the white and dark purple cultivars. Also called summer lilacs, butterfly bushes are hardy to Zone 5 and remain evergreen from Zone 8 south. The shrub is low-maintenance, only requiring dead-heading and annual pruning in later winter to encourage flowers and a compact shape.
