Description
| (Butterfly Bush) Buddleia 'Grand Cascade' is a show-stopping butterfly bush from the Cascade™ collection that brings long-lasting floral drama to sunny garden spaces. This refined shrub features enormous cascading panicles of pale lavender-purple blooms—each flower head measuring roughly 12–14 inches long and about 4 inches thick—creating a waterfall-like effect that draws butterflies, hummingbirds, and bees throughout the late summer and early fall display. With a mature height of approximately 5.5 to 6 feet and a spread of 7 to 8 feet, it forms a broad arching structure that works beautifully as a standalone specimen or planted en masse for maximum impact. Hardy in zones 5 through 10, Buddleia 'Grand Cascade' thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, and once established, it displays moderate drought tolerance while continuing to bloom profusely when many other shrubs are winding down. One of its standout features is deer resistance, making it a reliable choice even in gardens challenged by browsing wildlife. For pruning, this variety blooms on new wood, so it's best to cut back hard in the spring—removing all old wood to roughly 12 inches above the ground—to encourage compact regrowth and ensure the lush late-season flower show. |
