Buddleja Buddleia davidii alba
WHITE BUTTERFLY BUSH
SKU: 1040-10
Description
The butterfly bush is probably the most loved flowering shrub for butterflies! Each flower cluster is composed of hundreds of tiny pure-white tubular flowers that are loaded with nectar suitable to a huge range of butterflies, moths, and other pollinators! Plants are extremely fragrant, and shrubs are easy to grow once established, and require little care. Unlike many shrubs, these plants will bloom the first season from seed when started early! Plants reach 18" in the first season, and they mature at 5' in the second season.
Type: Shrub
Height: 5'
Location: Sun or part sun
Hardiness zones: 4-9
Seeds per pack: 10 (Buddleia seeds are very small)
Germination: Start these seeds indoors right away for best germination rates. Your planting container should have holes in the bottom for excess water to drain. Sow the seeds on the surface a seed-start mix and water in. Do not bury the seeds as they require light to germinate. Keep lightly moist and do not let the soil dry out. Keep at 20-22 °C, 68-72 °F. Seeds germinate in 20-60 days, though some could take up to 90 days.
