Description
The "Blaze Pink" cultivar of Butterfly Bush (Buddleja) is a medium-sized shrub celebrated for its hot pink flowers that bloom during Djilba (early spring), filling the garden with an enticing fragrance that attracts butterflies. It can be grown as a captivating centerpiece in the garden or placed in pots for added versatility. It's best suited for full sun, but protection from harsh afternoon sun is advised, and it thrives both in the ground and in pots.
For the optimal growth of "Blaze Pink," plant it in the ground and enhance the soil if sandy or poor, or in well-drained pots. The main pruning should be carried out in Makuru (winter), with regular dead-heading of spent flowers to encourage new blooms. Fertilise in Djilba (early spring) with a balanced fertiliser to keep it thriving. Following these special instructions will ensure a lively and fragrant addition to your outdoor space, adding colour and delight.
