BUDDLEIA. 



hybrida, Eva Dudley. Mr. E. H. Wilson of the Arnold Arboretum 

 writes of this new plant as follows: — 



"This charming new plant is of hybrid origin, the result of cross- 

 ing 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."
