You should wait until you see new green buds on the plant. Once you see them, prune the plant just above where the new and healthy leaf buds have formed. These dwarf butterfly bushes take time to bloom, usually starting in late June.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fast-Growing-Trees.com","offers":[{"title":"1 Quart","offer_id":48860192538794,"sku":"17957","price":8.09,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 Gallon","offer_id":48860192571562,"sku":"14749","price":12.14,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2 Gallon","offer_id":48860192604330,"sku":"16910","price":14.24,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"3 Gallon","offer_id":48860192637098,"sku":"14750","price":10.34,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0718\/6566\/3658\/files\/0w6n7hrtu8zp_e8d5207a-0de0-40f0-a4e3-529f369c81e3.jpg?v=1784865085","url":"https:\/\/fastgrowingtrees.shop\/products\/proven-winners-pugster-blue-butterfly-bush-ydru3a","provider":"Wasatch \u0026 West Goods","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
