Blue Chip Jr Butterfly Bush Live Plant – 3 Gallon Pot

Lo & Behold® Blue Chip Jr. Butterfly Bush (Buddleja ‘Blue Chip Jr.’) is a compact, deciduous flowering shrub valued for its fragrant blue-purple flowers and attractive silver-green foliage. As a refined selection of the original Blue Chip butterfly bush, this variety features a smaller, tidier growth habit and improved stem flexibility, making it an appealing choice for ornamental borders, pollinator gardens, and compact landscapes.

This variety produces fragrant blue-purple flower clusters on new wood from midsummer through the first frost under favorable growing conditions. Its soft silver-green leaves provide an attractive contrast to the colorful blossoms, while its compact branching creates a naturally neat appearance. The nectar-rich flowers attract butterflies and other pollinators throughout the blooming season.

Supplied as a live plant in a 3 gallon nursery pot, Lo & Behold® Blue Chip Jr. performs best in full sun and well-drained soil. Its compact growth habit makes it suitable for mixed shrub borders, smaller garden spaces, and outdoor container plantings.
