Water and feed it well the first year to get its root system established in your garden. Once it feels at home, it's quite forgiving of heat, humidity, poor soil, and even drought! Deer leave it alone, but hummingbirds as well as butterflies are attracted to its sweet, lightly fragrant blossoms. Now you can enjoy the ease and beauty of Buddleia in entirely new garden settings, thanks to 'Blue Chip'.

Black Knight Bears Unusual and Showy Color

This cultivar is one of the hardiest of all Buddleias

Buddleias are of course known for their prolific blooms and Black Knight takes it to a higher level. An extra-heavy producer, its blue-black flowers are particularly striking in direct sun. This beauty is also one of the hardiest cultivars of this group. In fact, it has been rated by the Arnold Arboretum as the best Buddleia of all.

One of the most prolific sources of massed color, Buddleias have an exceptionally long blooming period that lasts from summer to early autumn. The long flowers trusses are a seemingly unending supply of cut flowers and garden beauty, and attract butterflies, too.

Plants normally attain 10 to 12 feet in height with similar spread, though we recommend cutting back each year to promote bloom.
