Description

Buddleja Butterfly Candy 'Little Ruby' is a dwarf, deciduous shrub with a compact and bushy habit. This little shrub boasts magnificent rich, ruby pink flower spikes that are larger than those found on other dwarf varieties. It is also highly floriferous, producing around 150 flowers on each spike, which provides smaller gardens with a stunning display throughout Summer and Autumn. This is complemented by its narrow leaves with grey-silver tones. 

'Little Ruby' will thrive in full sun in a sheltered environment, in well drained, chalk, loam and sand soils. It has an ultimate height and spread of approximately 1 meter.

Planting Steps

Aftercare Advice

Trees and shrubs require a good watering regime for a couple of years whilst they establish. Water well and regularly through spring and summer, increasing in hot or dry weather. If planting in autumn, you may only need to water a little. It is advisable to keep the area free of competing weeds and grass during this period.
