Planting steps :
Choose a warm place with well drained and acidic soil.
If weather cooperates begin planting as soon as possible. If not, keep butterfly bushes where they get some sun through a window, and keep them moist, not soggy.
As set out the potted butterfly bushes, dig to loosen the soil around and below the actual spot, and then set the rooted plant at the same level if was growing in the pot.
Plant butterfly bushes about 4-6' apart, depending on the variety.
When remove the plant from the pot, do not pull on the leaves or stems. Squeeze the pot a little and the roots and soil will slide out for you.
Water well after planting, and continue to water at least every two weeks, depending on rainfall.
