Butterflies


It's easy to attract butterflies to your garden!


Our Plant of the Week is the Butterfly Bush - Buddleia, and Schaefer's Garden Center carries them in a variety of colors and sizes. Lo & Behold "Blue Chip" Buddleia is a Schaefer favorite! This variety features long lasting fragrant purple flowers and grows 24-36" in height. It's also easy to maintain and grows in full sun.


ALL Butterfly Bushes are now 25% off!


Additional plants that attract butterflies include Purple Cone Flower, Joe-Pye Weed, Phlox, Liatris and Lilacs. Butterflies especially like red, orange, yellow and purple flowers.


This summer, enjoy butterflies in your garden by adding a few simple plants to your landscape!
