Butterfly ‰ۡÌÝÌáWhite Profusion‰ۡó» boasts lovely, elegant, long flower panicles that are adored by butterflies and can add a gorgeous, dramatic effect to your garden. If you prune hard and well in the Spring, by July/September this stunning bush can produce tonnes more clusters of white, yellow-eyed flowers on distinctive, arching stems.

Within 5-10 years, it can reach an ultimate height and spread of 3m x 5m.
It is best to place Buddleja davidii ‰ۡÌÝÌáWhite Profusion‰ۡó» in a sunny or partially shaded position, and in chalk, clay, loam, or sand-based soils (which should also be moist and well-draining). It can survive in both exposed and sheltered positions.
To prune your shrub, cut back the previous year‰ۡó»s flowering stems down to about one or two buds. You must also remove any weak, dead, or thin growth. This should all be done in the middle of Spring. After pruning, we recommend applying some mulch and feed to the base of the plant.
When should I plant Butterfly Bush White Profusion hedging?
Your Butterfly bush can be planted at any time of the year, providing the plants are given enough water when it is warm and they are not planted under freezing temperatures. We recommend planting in spring, when the warm, moist soil is perfect for helping them to establish.
How far apart should I plant Butterfly Bush White Profusion plants?
It is best to plant Buddleja at least 1ft (30cm) apart, particularly when the plants are as small as 20/40cm. You can go for as many as 5 per metre, if wanting a thick bush very quickly, but 3 per metre will also do well.
How to plant Butterfly Bush White Profusion:
Planting your Butterfly Bush is like any other shrub. Begin by digging a hole that is twice as wide as the root ball, but the same depth. Mix the excess soil with some well-rotted compost, organic matter, or manure.̴Ì?
Place the plants into the hole, ensuring the base of the stem is just below ground level. Fill the gaps up with the remaining excess soil, patting down as you go along to secure the plant. Finish off by watering the plant well.
Ensure you keep the soil moist, but not wet, whilst the plant establishes (for the first 1-2 years after planting). You can test the soil to see if it is wet before watering, using your finger, if you are unsure of when to water (we recommend around 2-3 times per week, or more so during dry spells).

Field grown, bare roots are young plants that are only planted when they are dormant, from autumn to spring. We lift bare root plants and despatch them during the season but they can be pre-ordered in summer. As they are cheaper to grow, they are one of our most affordable hedge planting options.
Pot grown plants can be planted year round and make a convenient option. They come in a wide range of sizes, from 10cm to 2.5m so they're suitable for the majority of planting requirements.
Also field grown, root ball plants are scooped out of the ground using machinery to keep their root system intact and wrapped in bio-degradable, hessian sacks. They are mature plants that provide dense coverage very early on, ideal for when you need a thick hedge quickly.
Grown in troughs or bags that measure 50cm-1 metre in length and carefully clipped during the growing season. Our instant hegding troughs create a dramatic, instant hedge effect.
Our bare root discount deals include bundles of 50, 100, and 250 plants. The bigger the bundle, the higher the discount.
