How do you get some of these? The cost of mailing them (Priority Mail) is $3.50. If you send me that amount in a check, MO, or just add them to my Paypal account, I will send them to you.
When you get your bushes, it will be very difficult to separate them, I guess the easiest way is if you put them in a large container of water, and let the soil soften and fall apart and very carefully start separating the roots of the little bushes. You will get at least 100 of them. Plant them in individual small containers or outdoors. The plants have survived the most critical part of their growth which is the first 3 weeks. As your plants grow, give them away at the office, church, garage sale, and any place you can. You will be overwhelmed with little butterfly bushes. All you are going to need is a couple of them. It grows to 8 ft. and another 8 ft. wide. Trim heavily at the end of the year.
This bush grows north to zone 4.
Most of these plants will grow enough this year to flower.

If you want these, you must be ready to do some work.
I tried in past years to grow butterfly bush seeds with no luck at all.
Sometime in February this year, I planted a flat with pink butterfly bush seeds in my propagator. Apparently every one of those seeds sprouted because 3 weeks later
the flat was green all over. I separated some of the seeds into 2x2 inch containers, and gave many of them away. I still have 30 of those little containers which each have at least 100 little pink butterfly bushes.
Enjoy.
