I've never had one of these because they are so invasive in my neck of the woods. I've recently purchased a sterile form and would like to plant it in a sunny protected corner where I will enjoy it often. I know these can get quite big and I'm not sure my space is right for it. So, my question is: how difficult/easy is it to keep a butterfly bush on the smaller side? The label indicates it can get 3-7' tall and 3-7' wide. I'd like to keep it to about 3-4' wide, it can get as tall as it wants. Is this a reasonable thing, or should I rethink my location? Thanks.
This is the one I bought:
