Flutterby Petite® Tutti Fruitti Butterfly Bush

The Flutterby Petite® Tutti Fruitti Pink Butterfly Bush is a wonderful dwarf shrub, growing between 2 and 3 feet tall, and the same size across. It grows very quickly, and it will flower profusely even in its first year in your garden. It forms an open plant with many branches and a profusion of 2½ inch flower spikes with many tiny flowers in a brilliant violet-pink color. Unlike most larger butterfly bushes, this specially-created plant never produces seed, so it cannot spread into any surrounding natural areas. It has been approved for sale even in the states, like Oregon and Washington, that have banned the sale of butterfly bushes, because it is certified non-seeding and totally safe for your environment.

• Gorgeous dwarf butterfly bush with violet flowers
• Non-seeding and safe for the environment
• Easily grown in any sunny location in your garden
• Flowers from mid-summer to the first frost
• Perfect choice for natural gardening

The Flutterby Petite® Tutti Fruitti Pink Butterfly Bush should be planted in full sun, in a warm spot, and it will thrive in almost any kind of soil, from sand to clay, growing well even in poor and dry soils. Water regularly until it is established, but after that it will tolerate drought easily. It is almost never bothered by pests or diseases, and because it produces no seed, you don’t need to remove the spent flowers to encourage more. Instead they simply wither and fade, while new ones keep coming and coming. Prune in late winter or early spring, cutting back to a framework of the sturdiest branches. For fast and easy gardening, you can’t beat it.
