Buddleja ‘Royal Red’ is a large, vigorous, deciduous shrub with elegant, arching branches and lance-shaped, green leaves, whitish underneath. Long, elegant, cone-shaped panicles of fragrant, magenta-purple flowers bloom in summer and autumn, usually from June to September, sometimes until the first frosts. Attractive to hummingbirds and butterflies, as its name suggests. Buddleja ‘Royal Red’ grows best in average, loamy, medium moisture, well-drained soils in full sun. It doesn’t like too wet or waterlogged soils, but is adaptable to clay and poor soils. Once established, tolerant of heat and drought. In cold climates, it will die to the ground and grow back again in spring. No serious disease or pest problems. Low maintenance plant, doesn’t require pruning. Butterfly Bush 'Royal Red', with its fantastic fragrant purple flowers, is a wonderful long-blooming shrub and a great addition to any informal, cottage, wildlife, or butterfly garden. Excellent for flower beds, shrub borders, and foundation plantings.
