Say hello to the Butterfly Candy™ Li’l Grape™ Butterfly Bush—a small shrub that delivers a big splash of color and life to your garden. Growing just 2–3 feet tall and wide, Li’l Grape™ stays neat and compact while filling your garden with fragrant, deep purple blooms from late spring all the way through fall. It’s a magnet for butterflies, bees, and even hummingbirds, making it a must-have for pollinator lovers.

Why we love it:

  • The fragrant purple flower clusters are a stunning pop of color all season.

  • Its compact size makes it perfect for containers, patios, and smaller garden spaces.

  • Pollinator magnet—expect butterflies and bees galore!

  • Once established, it’s low water and deer resistant, so it’s as tough as it is beautiful.

Easy care tips: Plant in full sun, water deeply to get it started, and mulch lightly to protect roots (but keep mulch away from the stem). A quick prune in early spring and a touch of slow-release fertilizer will keep it blooming beautifully year after year.
