: I have 2 butterfly bushes that are planted in 3/4 full sun. I just planted them in April. They were progressing nicely, grew 2/3 times the original size and had beautiful blooms. Now the branches have started dying off. Any ideas?

Hi Beverly,
Have you been keeping them well watered? You might want to prune them a little and water well.
