Color Choice® Lo & Behold® Ruby Chip Butterfly Bush (Buddleia x 'SMNBDD' PP32,399 Can 6,959) is a wonderfully compact Butterfly Bush with a height and spread of only 2-3 feet!

To help this plant settle in and thrive, we recommend these standard planting practices: Plant in fertile, well-draining soil, as this genus is particularly sensitive to root rot in water-logged conditions. Select a site with full sun, as maximum light exposure is critical for strong stem development and consistent flower production. Prune in early spring to remove dead wood and stimulate vigorous new growth, which ensures the plant remains compact and floriferous. Water regularly during the first growing season until established and consider deadheading throughout the summer to encourage a secondary flush of blooms.
