Description

18-24" tall x 18-24" wide. One of the smallest Butterfly Bushes bred to date, 'Pink Micro Chip' is a tiny, yet picture-perfect version of this favorite perennial. Its sweetly fragrant, cone-shaped flowers appear in a vibrant shade of pinkish-purple atop upright, open-vase branches. Sized more like a salvia or lavender plant, the smaller scope and tighter shape of this Buddleia make it a great choice for sites that call for low-growing shrubs, like foundation plantings, large containers, and edged paths. Perfect for pollinator and butterfly gardens, 'Pink Micro Chip' shares its blooms continuously from early summer through mid fall. 

Planting & Care

Planting Instructions for Butterfly Bushes:

  1. Open the box immediately, protect from cold, and water each potted plant. Some of your butterfly bush plants may have new green growth and some may not. If you see no leaves, don't worry; this is normal. The roots in the pot are healthy and ready to grow in your garden.
  2. Plant as soon as you can. If your weather cooperates (above freezing), begin planting as soon as possible. If not, keep your butterfly bushes where they get some sun through a window, and keep them moist, not soggy.
  3. As you set out your potted butterfly bushes, dig to loosen the soil around and below the actual spot, and then set the rooted plant at the same level if was growing in the pot.
  4. Plant your butterfly bushes about 4-6' apart, depending on the variety.
    When you remove the plant from the pot, do not pull on the leaves or stems. Squeeze the pot a little and the roots and soil will slide out for you.Water well after planting, and continue to water at least every two weeks, depending on rainfall.
