CranRazz Butterfly Bush
Product Description: CranRazz Butterfly Bush
Stunning Nectar Resource for Butterflies
What’s the latest sensation for butterflies? It may sound like a tasty juice blend from the local supermarket, but the CranRazz Butterfly Bush (Buddleja \’Boscranz’) is a butterfly favorite with its fragrant and vibrant blooms.
If your garden needs a burst of color or you want it to become the next butterfly hangout, try planting this flowering shrub as a nectar resource. Then just add a host plant, such as Swamp Milkweed to give food for monarch caterpillars.
This striking plant produces cone-shaped clusters of red and violet flowers that bob and dance in the wind from summertime into fall. Its bright raspberry reds earn the CranRazz Butterfly Bush its juicy namesake.
Especially important as a late season nectar source for Monarch heading south for the winter, you can plant several to keep the butterflies happy. Butterflies, other pollinators, and hummingbirds flock to these wine-colored blooms. You’ll love the remarkable coloring.
This plant loves the sun! Plant it where it can soak in the sunshine. It looks lovely among other flowering perennials as a mixed border. It’s fast-growing, so expect it to give your garden border a full and lively look in no time.
In addition to full sun, the CranRazz Butterfly Bush needs well-drained, medium moisture soil to grow to its fullest potential. Its deer resistance makes it a great choice as an addition to your garden.
Use in a border, as a “Thriller” in Container Gardens or plant multiples to mass for a big impact. Works great as an informal hedge between properties, too.
Order this gorgeous variety today and support your local butterflies. They’ll be glad you did!
