The Buzz®Ivory Butterfly Bush is an extremely productive flowering plant that is known for its abundant blooms and fragrant ivory-white spikes. It also boasts lush foliage, making it an attractive addition to any garden or landscape. Buzz® Ivory Butterfly Bush is a compact plant that reaches a height of 3-4+ feet, making it an ideal choice for those with limited space. It is well-suited for container gardening, small-space gardens, and even patio plantings. Its compact size allows it to thrive in these environments without taking up too much space. When it comes to landscaping, using plants strategically can help enhance the overall appearance of your outdoor space. One useful technique is to utilize plants to disguise your foundation or create a secondary layer of color between taller background shrubs and perennial plantings. This not only adds visual interest but also provides a cohesive and well-designed look to your garden or yard. By carefully selecting and arranging plants, you can achieve a seamless transition between different elements of your landscape, creating a harmonious and aesthetically pleasing environment. The butterfly bush is a flowering plant that thrives in full sun. With its ability to bloom from spring to fall, it adds vibrant colors and attracts butterflies to your garden. Discover how this plant can enhance your outdoor space with its continuous blooming season.

General Care Guidelines:

1. Planting Tips:

   • Select a well-draining soil enriched with organic matter.
   • Choose a location that receives at least 6 hours of sunlight daily.
   • Plant during the spring or fall for optimal establishment.

2. Watering:

   • Keep the soil consistently moist, especially during the growing season.
   • Water at the base to avoid wetting the foliage, reducing the risk of diseases.
   • Adjust watering frequency based on weather conditions; increase during hot spells.

3. Mulching:

   • Apply a 2-3 inch layer of organic mulch around the base to retain moisture.
   • Mulching also helps control weeds and regulates soil temperature.

4. Pruning:

   • Regular deadheading encourages continuous blooming.
   • Prune in late winter or early spring to shape the plant and remove dead or damaged wood.
   • Maintain a rounded form for a neat and compact appearance.

5. Fertilizing:

   • Feed with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in spring.
   • Avoid excessive fertilization, as it can lead to leggy growth with fewer blooms.
   • Mulching with well-rotted compost also provides a natural nutrient boost.
