Garden Goods Direct Shrubs Black Knight Butterfly Bush

Black Knight Butterfly Bush (Buddleja davidii ‘Black Knight’) is a pollinator shrub that provides loads of color from the lightly fragrant, dark purple flower spikes that almost appear as black flowers. These fragrant flower clusters that bloom in mid-summer attract butterflies and hummingbirds along with other friendly bugs and birds.

This fast-growing flowering shrub works well as a foundation shrub, accent plant, or as a background in borders. It is harder than other varieties but still may die to the ground in cold winter areas.

The Black night Butterfly Bush is easy to grow and care for. It prefers well-drained soil and full sun for optimal growth and blooms. After it has been established, it is low maintenance; all you have to do is sit back and admire its beauty!
