Soil
Good drainage is essential. The combination of wet soil and cold temperatures is particularly detrimental.Pruning
Prune only after new growth emerges in spring. Cut back to just above a set of large, healthy buds.Uses
All buddleia in the Lo & Behold® series are especially suited to groundcover and edging, as well as being incorporated into gardens, borders, and foundation plantings.Growing Tips
