Buddleja Butterfly Candy Little White

Buddleja Butterfly Candy Little White is a compact, free-flowering buddleja bearing dense spikes of white, nectar-rich blooms from July to September, attracting butterflies and bees. Well-suited to Irish gardens, it thrives in full sun but tolerates light shade, and grows in most well-drained soils including chalk, clay or sand. Fully hardy and drought-tolerant once established, its neat habit suits smaller borders and wildlife-friendly plantings; prune hard in late winter or early spring to encourage vigorous new growth and abundant flowers.

To help give a clear sense of scale, the stone wall shown in our photos measures approximately 265cm in height. We also use familiar garden tools as visual references: a digging fork (110cm tall) and a hand fork (30cm tall). These are included purely as size guides to help you better judge proportions when viewing the images.
