MOP TOP BUTTERFLY BUSH 3gal

The Mop Top Butterfly Bush (Buddleja) is a gardener's dream for adding texture and reliable color without the sprawling mess of traditional varieties. Reaching a tidy 3 to 4 feet in height and width, its compact, rounded habit stays neat, making it perfect for smaller borders or decorative containers. In Zones 7 and 8, this sun-loving beauty thrives in the heat, demanding at least six hours of direct light to produce its signature honey-scented blooms.

One of the best reasons to plant Mop Top is its resilience; while it draws butterflies and hummingbirds by the dozen, its fuzzy foliage is naturally deer and rabbit-resistant. To ensure success, plant it in a blend of Watters Premium Mulch and your garden’s native soil to improve drainage. Feed it with 7-4-4 All-Purpose Plant Food to support vigorous flowering. This hardy shrub proves you can have a lush, pollinator-friendly sanctuary that is both low-maintenance and beautiful.
