Can I plant a Butterfly Bush in a raised garden bed that sits along my house?
I bought a Butterfly/Hummingbird garden and want to plant it in one of the beds that sits alongside my house. It has 2 Butterfly Bushes–will they grow too large for this area?
Butterfly bushes can get VERY large. Depends on the amount of sun it gets. The good thing about them is that you cut them down every year. So, if one year doesn’t look good, you start over the next. I’ve found that they trim up very good. Just keep it pruned. It wont bloom as well, but should be enough to keep it pretty and the butterfly’s coming. I also put a butterfly house next to my bush….so far, none have used it. But, it sure looks cute.
