| Botanical Name | Buddleja davidii 'CranRazz' |
| Description | A standout in the Humdinger® series, featuring massive cranberry-red flower spikes. While it thrives in the intense Willis heat, it is notoriously sensitive to "wet feet." To prevent root rot in our local Houston clay, we strongly recommend planting in raised beds or amending with expanded shale to ensure superior drainage. |
| Exposure | Full Sun (Required for best blooming and plant health) |
| Height x Width | 5-6 ft. Tall x 5-6 ft. Wide |
| Water | Low to Moderate; drought-tolerant once established. Be extremely cautious of overwatering during the humid Houston winters. |
| Zones | 5 - 9 |
| Fertilization | Apply a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in early spring. Avoid heavy nitrogen, which promotes foliage over flowers. |
| Pruning | Prune back hard in late winter (to about 12-18") to encourage vigorous new growth and massive flower spikes. |
| Deer Resistance | High |
