Why plant Pugster® Amethyst Butterfly Bush?
If the small size doesn't have you loving this butterfly bush, the full-sized flowers certainly will! Pugster Amethyst Butterfly Bush, named after the adorable pug dogs for their small size, fits a lot into a small package. More winter hardy than other butterfly bushes, areas with harsher winters can still enjoy the large blooms of Amethyst. Light purple bloom clusters, highly fragrant, are attractive to pollinators such as bees and butterflies bringing more pollinators to your yard and other plants in the landscape. Fill your empty, sunny spots with Pugster Amethyst and watch as the pollinators visit your landscape from spring to summer.
Pugster Amethyst Butterfly Bush was developed to be sturdier and more cold hardy than the standard butterfly bush. It is smaller and fits nicely in a space-challenged landscape. The plant may be smaller, but the blooms are just as large and plentiful!
How to use Pugster® Amethyst Butterfly Bush in the landscape?
The plant might be smaller than the average butterfly bush, but the flowers are just as large! Pugster Amethyst produces a dense, fragrant purple panicle on sturdy stems. The plant will bloom prolifically from early summer to fall frosts, attracting butterflies, bees and other pollinators to your yard. What a perfect addition for that bare corner of your garden or in your city courtyard!

How To Plant Pugster® Amethyst Butterfly Bush
Pugster Amethyst likes to be planted in full sun with well-drained soils. It will not survive in wet soils or in the shade. If you have clay soils, plant the bush in a raised bed to that the water will drain away from the plant.
