Buddleia ‘Blue Chip Jr.’

Doing inventory this week, I was attracted at the bottom of the nursery by the incredible fragrance of a row of Buddleia ‘Blue Chip Jr’ ;  but not just the fragrance, it was alive with Swallowtail butterflies. Some people worry about Buddleia because the genus was banned a few years ago on the grounds that it was invasive, but happily the breeders got busy and came up with new non seeding cultivars. Of which I sell two: Miss Molly, a vigorous 8’ cultivar with gorgeous flowers of an indescribable fuscia-esque color, and this one, which is a dwarf blue-purple. These plants are hardy, pest resistant (including deer), and totally prunable. What’s not to like?
