Miss Molly Butterfly Bush (Buddleja davidii ‘Miss Molly') is a popular cultivar of butterfly bush known for its reddish-purple spikes of flowers. The blooms of butterfly bushes are well known to attract butterflies and other pollinators. Here's why the Miss Molly Butterfly Bush is the perfect addition to your landscape:

Flowers: This cultivar is valued for its deep, reddish-purple color. The flower spikes are dense and appear from midsummer into fall, attracting butterflies and other pollinators. The rich, magenta-like color beautifully contrasts brighter blooms in the landscape. 

Foliage: Miss Molly butterfly bush has gray-green foliage that provides a nice backdrop to its purple spikes. The leaves are lance-shaped and add to the overall attractiveness of the plant.

Size: Miss Molly is a smaller variety butterfly bush that reaches a height of around 4 to 5 feet, with a similar spread. They have a refined habit that makes this cultivar suitable for smaller garden spaces. 

Sunlight Requirements: Butterfly bushes, including Miss Molly, thrive in full sun. Adequate sunlight exposure ensures vigorous growth and abundant flowering.

Soil and Watering: These plants can thrive in various soil types as long as the soil is moderately fertile and well-draining. Regular watering is beneficial, especially during dry periods, to encourage healthy growth and flowering.

Hardiness: Miss Molly butterfly bush is generally hardy in USDA zones 5 to 9, making it adaptable to a range of climates.

Maintenance: Prune Miss Molly in the early spring after new growth emerges. Make your cuts just above where big, healthy leaf buds have formed. It can take several weeks into spring for new growth to show up - be patient and resist the urge to cut them back too early.

Landscape Use: Miss Molly’s smaller size makes it a wonderful choice for mixed borders and small perennial beds. Butterfly bushes make an excellent addition to any landscape that has full sun exposure. 

Overall, Miss Molly Butterfly Bush is a favorite among gardeners for its attractive flowers, wildlife value, and ease of care. Miss Molly is a wonderful addition to any space and will stand out as a garden favorite year after year.
