The Blueberry Pie™ Butterfly Bush is a compact shrub that will be right at home in a butterfly garden. The dainty, tubular flowers have scalloped petals in a dark purplish-blue hue. Each bloom has a white ring near the center, surrounding an orange eye. The flowers bloom in 5-7 inch cone-shaped clusters and make a stunning visual impact. The fragrant flowers bloom from late spring until fall.

The flowers certainly make a statement, but the blooms are complemented by dark green leaves that come to a pronounced point and feature serrated edges. The mounded form is dense and covered with flowers for most of the growing season. Butterflies favor this shrub, but hummingbirds and bees are also frequent visitors. The Blueberry Pie™ Butterfly Bush is low maintenance and grows as a perennial in zones 5 through 9.

Blueberry Pie™ Butterfly Bush Care

Plant this blooming shrub in full sun. A spot with at least 6 hours of sunlight is necessary for the Blueberry Pie™ Butterfly Bush to reach full size and consistently bloom. Use a rich, loamy soil that allows drainage. New plants need consistent water, but established plants often only need a drink during a dry period. Fertilize annually in late spring or early winter using a slow-release plant food formulated for shrubs.

Prune the Blueberry Pie™ Butterfly Bush to remove dead or damaged growth. Shape the shrub as needed or trim back overgrowth in early spring. The Blueberry Pie™ Butterfly Bush has a small growth habit and does not require frequent, if any, pruning sessions.

Blueberry Pie™ Butterfly Bush Spacing

The Blueberry Pie™ Butterfly Bush reaches 2 to 3 feet tall and wide. Space shrubs 2 to 3 feet apart to create a low hedge or feature one plant in a 16-inch wide container.

Plant Addicts Warranty - 1 Year (Extra Purchase Required)

We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die. Hungry animals, drought, poor soil conditions, over watering, diseases & pests are all good examples of what can cause plants to die. The Plant Addicts Warranty is a 1 year warranty protecting you from all of the unknowns and will replace your plant if something were to happen to it.

The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability). We may ask for photos for documentation purposes, but we try to make the process as easy as possible.

Guarantee and Warranty

Plant Shipping

Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.

Winter to Early Spring

We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.

Summer

If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.

Fall into Winter

We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!

Winter

Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!

Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
