Li’l Raspberry™ Butterfly Bush Delivers Vibrant Raspberry Colored Blooms in a Compact, Low-Maintenance Form
Bring nonstop color and pollinator activity to your garden with the Li’l Raspberry Butterfly Bush. This compact variety from the Butterfly Candy® series bursts with raspberry-red flowers from spring to frost, attracting butterflies, bees, and hummingbirds all season long.
Brighten your garden with the radiant color and continuous blooms of the Li’l Raspberry™ Butterfly Bush. This delightful member of the Butterfly Candy® collection packs bold beauty into a compact size, producing abundant clusters of raspberry-red flowers that bloom from late spring until the first frost. Loved by butterflies, bees, and hummingbirds alike, this charming shrub brings long-lasting color and life to borders, containers, and sunny garden beds.
The Li’l Raspberry™ Butterfly Bush is a hybrid cultivar of Buddleia davidii, developed to deliver the same dazzling color and sweet fragrance as traditional butterfly bushes while maintaining a manageable, compact form. Part of the innovative Butterfly Candy® series, it was bred for small-space gardening without sacrificing flower power or performance. Its tidy growth habit and continuous reblooming nature make it a top choice for gardeners seeking vivid color and pollinator appeal in a low-maintenance package.
This hardy shrub thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, where it will reward you with a steady stream of flowers throughout the warm months. Water regularly during the first growing season to establish a strong root system, then reduce watering once established. Li’l Raspberry™ performs best in average garden soil that drains well and benefits from a layer of mulch to retain moisture and regulate soil temperature. Light pruning in early spring before new growth begins will help maintain a neat shape and encourage even more blooms. Fertilize with a balanced, slow-release formula in spring to promote vigorous flowering.
The Li’l Raspberry™ Butterfly Bush grows to about 2 to 3 feet tall and wide, making it perfect for small gardens, patio planters, or mixed borders. It produces vibrant raspberry-red flower spikes that add a pop of color against its silvery-green foliage, creating a beautiful contrast that lasts all summer. Its fragrant blooms attract butterflies, hummingbirds, and bees, turning your garden into a lively pollinator haven. This variety is deer resistant, drought tolerant once established, and thrives in heat and humidity, making it a reliable performer in a wide range of climates.
Perfect Plants is a trusted, family-run farm that’s been growing premium plants since 1980. Our expert growers nurture each Butterfly Bush under the warm Florida sun, ensuring your Li’l Raspberry™ arrives healthy, well-rooted, and ready to thrive in your landscape or patio garden.
