Li'l Lavender Butterfly Bush has light purple flowers with a light, sweet fragrance that attracts pollinators like butterflies and bees, which is excellent for biodiversity in your garden. All the varieties of Butterfly Candy are well-branched and are ideal for containers and smaller gardens because of their size. These flowering perennials mature to 2–3' high x 2–3' wide. Butterfly Candy butterfly bushes are easy-care, prune-free, and water-wise once established.

Butterfly Candy is a perennial and will produce new foliage in late spring in warmer climates and early summer in colder parts of the country. Lilac purple blooms of Li'l Lavender Buddleia will start to emerge in the summer and continue into fall.

Butterfly Candy Butterfly Bush Care

Sunlight Requirements for Butterfly Bush

Butterfly Candy bushes grow and flower best in full sun to part shade. However, they require a minimum of 8 hours of sunlight. They can grow in partial shade in warmer climates but still need at least 6 hours of sun, or it will reduce their flower production.

Are Buddleia Bushes Cold Hardy?

Buddleia is tolerant to temperatures as low as -20°C and thrives in USDA Zones 5-10, making it viable for most continental United States. However, be patient with buddleia since the shrub might not flush in the spring as soon as other perennials.

Watering Butterfly Bushes

Buddleia plants enjoy moist, well-draining soil that is rich in nutrients. Water weekly during the spring and summer and allow the top layer of soil to dry out between watering to prevent root rot. After your Butterfly Candy is established, it will be a water-wise plant that will only require water during periods of extreme drought.

When to Prune Buddleia

Since new growth appears on new wood, pruning can wait until the new wood is ready to grow in the spring. Be patient with your Butterfly Candy shrub because it flushes later than other perennials.

Deadheading is encouraged with buddleia. Deadheading means that you trim the spent flower spikes to encourage new shoots and flower buds. The practice of deadheading also prevents seeds from forming and dropping from the spent flowers, keeping your Butterfly Candy tidy and compact.

Fertilizing Flowering Buddleia Plants

As a blooming plant, butterfly bushes do well with an all-purpose fertilizer or a rose fertilizer intended to promote blooming. You can apply your fertilizer in the spring and early summer. You shouldn't apply fertilizer after July.

Spacing Recommendations

If you are planting rows of butterfly bushes, you will want to space them about 2-3 feet apart if you desire dense cover. If you're going to show off the mounding habit and provide more space between each fern, plant them at least 4+ feet apart.

Where to Use Butterfly Bushes

Plant your butterfly bush in sunny locations with 6-8 hours of sunlight daily. You can use them as short hedge rows that complement evergreen shrubs like boxwoods, nandinas, gardenias, or distylium. Since these are compact growing perennials, they are perfect for containers and patio gardens.

Planting Instructions

  • Dig in your native soil a hole as deep and wide as the container. We recommend planting in native soil for best acclimation.
  • Fill the hole with water and thoroughly water the new plant; allow both to drain.
  • Gently place the plant on its side and remove the pot. Place your hand on the bottom of the plant and put it in the hole.
  • Return native soil around the root ball, wetting and gently tamping down.
  • To complete this, create a shallow trench around the base of the plant to contain the water when watering.
  • Mulch 1-2" deep around the plant, avoiding the area closest to the stem.

Like the sunscree - not the spray can
Style: SPF 50, Size: 6 Fl Oz (Pack of 2)
Sunscreen itself did a great job with our snorkeling and scuba diving. Long lasting and didn't rub off in spots where masks and other things can leave spots unprotected. However, the spray can itself was difficult. Even when being sure it was completely in the unlocked position, it would take me two thumbs at full pressure to get it started spraying at times. Definitely, only a couple of us in the party were the appliers as we could get it started.

Love it! Eco-friendly and Easy-to-Use Spray
Style: SPF 50, Size: 6 Fl Oz (Pack of 2), Style: SPF 50, Size: 6 Fl Oz (Pack of 2)
I really like the Alba Botanicals Coconut Clear Spray! Not only does it give me a refreshing coconutty vibe, but it’s also biodegradable and cruelty-free, which is important to me. 🐰♻️ The spray-on application is a breeze, and I love how it doesn’t leave that annoying greasy feeling on my skin. It absorbs quickly and leaves my skin feeling soft and nourished. Perfect for those sunny beach days or any time I need a quick spritz of hydration. I highly recommend this coconut clear spray to everyone who values eco-friendly choices and easy-to-use skincare products.

Great product, bad packaging
Style: SPF 50, Size: 6 Fl Oz (Pack of 2)
I love this sunscreen! I use it on myself and my child and it works very well. However, the spray nozzle on one of the cans is locked and it will not work. I have tried to turn the lock, lift it up, etc., to no avail. This item is also not returnable. $20 for 1 can of sunscreen is quite expensive.

Great product
Style: SPF 50, Size: 6 Fl Oz (Pack of 2)
Product is great with good coverage and ease of use. Much better than comparable products because it is very light feeling and doesn't leave a heavy or sticky residue on your skin. Perfect protection for anyone who burns easily or fair skinned. However I paid for the extra rushed 3 day shipping and it was delayed and I wasn't reimbursed the extra shipping charges even though it arrived 6 days later.

Save your money- don’t buy
Style: SPF 50, Size: 6 Fl Oz (Pack of 2)
Purchased this for our trip to Mexico. At two cruise ports we were doing a combination snorkel and pool day. I got this sunscreen because it was reef friendly and came with two bottles. Both bottles were IMPOSSIBLE to spray. You could not sunscreen yourself because you had to hold the bottle just right, push down with extreme force, and have your fingers place very specifically on the lid. My 13 year old and husband couldn’t even use the bottles. I did figure it out so I had to continually sunscreen everyone in the family. No one in my family has sensitive skin, but we all ended up with a fine rash after using this sunscreen. On days prior we used another brand and no one had a problem. We also reapplied often (every 60-90 min) and we still got pretty burnt. Maybe we got a bad batch…
