Notes
'Lo & Behold Blue Chip Dwarf' wand butterflybush (Buddleja 'Lo & Behold Blue Chip Dwarf') is a shrub for borders, pollinator gardens, and cottage gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full sun and dry to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. Butterflies, hummingbirds, bees, and birds visit the fragrant blooms, which open in early to late summer. It is not a favorite of deer or rabbits, though hungry ones will eat almost anything. Drought tolerance makes it easy to keep.
Pairs well with Feather reed grass, Amsonia, and Mexican hat.
