     Lo & Behold® 'Pink Micro Chip' is the smallest member yet of this series of award-winning dwarf butterfly bush.

    • Initially I was disappointed, but that was because I was impatient. I thought these would flower early. They don't, but since the beginning of July (Zone 7) they have been fabulous. It was a very cold Winter for us. I’m very happy with them. I took a photo to add to my review so you could see them, but there isn’t a way to do that here.

    • Planted three of these on the west side of our house. The first year the deer tasted two of them and spit them out but the plants came back anyway. This year all three are healthy and blooming and the deer have left them alone. The flowers this year are larger than last and are beautiful. I would definitely buy more of these. I deadhead mine just because I don't like the look of the dead flowers left on the plant.

    • We planted six of these this spring and they are putting on quite a show. We couldn't be more pleased. Additionally, the packaging and service from PW was excellent.
