Choose Pugster Pink® Butterfly Bush for a compact flower-heavy shrub in a sunny garden bed; the tradeoff is that it should be cut back hard each spring and is not useful as a screen.
| Category | Grade | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Landscape Impact | B+ | The flower color carries the plant, but the overall form is more garden accent than anchor shrub. |
| Growth Rate | A- | It regrows strongly after spring pruning and flowers on new wood. |
| Maintenance | B | Care is simple, but skipping the spring cutback usually gives a weaker-looking plant. |
| Deer Resistance | A- | Deer usually pass this by, since the foliage deters browsing, though no plant is completely immune where pressure is severe. |
| Small Space Fit | A | Its compact habit fits places where larger butterfly bushes would crowd paths or perennials. |
| Screening Value | D | It is too small and too seasonal to block views or define a property line. |
At PGNE, we'd typically recommend this for sunny foundation edges, mailbox beds, and pollinator plantings where customers want flowers without giving up much room.
| Mature Height | 24 in (2 ft) |

| Sun | full sun |
| Moisture | dry to moist |

Bought 8-10 ft and all were barely 8 if you count the container. Trees are thin and lots of brown branches and broken branches due you thrown in box truck no wrapping or anything. Hoping they survive and thicken up quick…
I went up there today from Quincy MA to pick up two Blue Wichita Junipers and they were absolutely beautiful. Thank you, Chris and everybody from Pro Growers of New England!

The plants are beautiful and all 13 were consistent in height and width. And at a fraction of the cost of other garden centers. Having the team that delivered them do the planting was one of the best values I can think of. They did a great job from start to finish and even helped me with my watering system which they didn’t have to do!
Very nice
Guys installed for me as well
Great job
Huge selection and fast delivery. All plants arrived in great condition.
Great prices and Unbelievable selection of big and small trees, shrubs, and flowering perennials! Nicest folks to work with. And local delivery is awesome! First time purchasing from this company, , and have already told friends, neighbors and family. The owner Chris is professional, knowledgeable, and yet laid back in a most friendly way. Mags in the office will help with any details. My all time BEST garden purchase EVER!
