Bring big butterfly-bush color to small spaces with Buddleia × 'Pugster Pinker®'. This compact selection produces full-sized, fragrant pink flower spikes over a tidy, mounded plant, giving you a long season of bloom from summer into fall without taking over the bed.
At maturity, expect a plant about 24-30 inches tall and roughly 24-30 inches wide. Use it to edge a sunny border, add repeated color in mixed plantings, or anchor a container where you want strong summer impact and pollinator activity.
Give your plant full sun for best flowering and a sturdy habit. Provide well-drained soil and water regularly as it establishes; once rooted, it handles typical summer dry spells better than many flowering shrubs. Avoid soggy sites, especially in winter, and mulch lightly to moderate soil moisture and temperature.
Prune in spring after new growth begins to keep the plant dense and blooming heavily, since it flowers on new wood. A hard cutback in early spring helps maintain the compact size and refreshes stems for the season ahead.
