Buddleja davidii White

Common Name:
Buddleja davidii ‘White’ (White Butterfly Bush)

Description:
Buddleja davidii ‘White’ is a graceful, deciduous to semi-evergreen butterfly bush that produces large, fragrant white flower spikes from summer through autumn. Its nectar-rich blooms are highly attractive to bees, butterflies, and other pollinators, making it an excellent addition to wildlife-friendly gardens. The silvery-green, lance-shaped foliage provides a soft and elegant contrast to the pure white flower clusters, creating a fresh and airy display.

This hardy and fast-growing shrub thrives in well-drained soils and enjoys full sun for optimal flowering. It is drought-tolerant once established and benefits from regular pruning in late winter to encourage a bushy growth habit and continuous blooming. Ideal for mixed borders, cottage gardens, and larger containers, Buddleja ‘White’ adds a refined and timeless touch to any outdoor space.
