Buddleia General Information

Buddleia Lo & Behold® Series is a breakthrough Proven Winners® variety of miniature butterfly bushes. Easy care with same appeal of traditional varieties - fragrant, butterfly magnets. Great in a container. Buddleias are shipped during our spring shipping season only. Idaho has restricted all potted plant material from being shipped into Idaho at this time.

Buddleia Plant Care

Buddleia prefer full sun with fertile, well-drained soil. No deadheading or pruning required. Very late to break dormancy in spring. Blooms on new wood. May die back to ground in northern climates.

Plantable Pots

Our plants are grown in 3.5x3.5x4” plantable pots. Made from 100% biodegradable coconut husk fibers (coir), these pots have tremendous advantages over plastic pots. With better air exchange, this "breathable" pot fosters robust root growth and reduces transplant shock since you can plant the pots directly in the ground. The pot naturally becomes part of the soil on its own over time—no composting required—and since they're made from a renewable resource that requires very little energy, they're earth-friendly too!

100% Guarantee

We offer a 100% guarantee for all our perennials to reach you in good condition and to grow. If you're not satisfied, we'll reship or refund immediately. Please don't hesitate to contact us if you have questions or concerns—we share your passion for gardening and want your new plants to thrive in your border!
