Description

Buddleja Unique flowers extremely rich and long. Unique’s branches are covered with masses of graceful, lilac-purple flower panicles. You can enjoy this abundant floral display from early summer throughout autumn. Buddleja alternifolia is also called ‘Fountain Butterfly Bush’. Unique is indeed like a fountain of flowers! Unique has sterile, lightly scented flowers, which attract bees and butterflies. The pastel lilac-purple colour makes a great combination with its fine, silvery green foliage. Unique has an excellent bushy and compact shape. Perfect to use in a container on your balcony or terrace. Also very suitable for shrub borders, landscaping and butterfly gardens. This butterfly bush has a max. size of 120 cm high and 70 cm wide. Unique loves a spot in the full sun, in well drained and fertile soil. It’s winter hardy to -25° Celsius. Unique blooms on new wood, so it’s best to prune after flowering. Then it can produce plenty of new flowers again!
