Buddleia hybrida, Eva Dudley. 
BUDDLEIA hybrida, Eva Dudley. Mr. E. H. Wilson of the Ar- 
nold Arboretum writes of this new plant as follows:— 
“This charming new plant is of hybrid origin, the result of 
crossing the well-known Buddleia Davidii magnifica and B. asiatica. 
A free-growing and extremely floriferous plant, it combines the 
good qualities of both its parents. Every shoot and lateral branch 
terminates in a cylindrical tail from 6 to 20 inches in length, which 
is composed of hundreds of fragrant flowers. The flowers are of 
the most delicate lavender-pink with intense orange centre. Apart 
from its good habit and free-growing and floriferous character, 
this new plant is remarkable for the delightful fragrance of its 
flowers. A single spray delightfully scents a whole room. It would 
appear to me that there is a bright future for this plant, not only 
for decorative pot purposes, but also as a cut flower. 
“Messrs. Farquhar are to be congratulated on the production 
of such a valuable novelty.”
