Shrubs

Buddleja Nanho Blue Butterfly Bush is a fast-growing, semi-evergreen shrub ideal for UK gardens seeking to attract bees and butterflies. Supplied in a 3 litre pot, this compact variety matures at 1.5m high and wide over 5–10 years and provides a long summer flowering period with highly fragrant, dark blue-lavender panicles.

Key Features

  • Wildlife Friendly: High nectar blooms attract butterflies, ladybirds, bees, and other pollinators.
  • Space Efficient: Compact size makes it suitable for small gardens, borders, or beds.
  • Low Maintenance: Drought tolerant once established; suitable for full sun, well-drained soil.
  • UK Hardy: Survives typical UK winters, remaining semi-evergreen in mild areas.

Care & Planting Guide

  • Plant directly from supplied 3 litre pot – no immediate repotting required.
  • Prune lightly in spring to maintain compact shape and encourage new growth.
  • Water regularly during the first year; reduce frequency as the plant establishes.

Common questions

Bare root plants are field-grown and lifted dormant — the cheapest way to plant a hedge. Pot grown plants have an established root system and can be planted year-round. Root ball plants are mature field-grown plants lifted with a soil ball for instant height.
Pot grown plants can go in the ground at any time of year. Bare root is supplied dormant from November to March, and root ball plants are lifted in that same window.
