THE BUEDLEYA, OB EVERBLOOMING BUTTERFLY 
BUSH, was one of the show plants of the San Francisco 
and San Diego Expositions. It attracted unusual atten- 
tion and was greatly admired by thousands who were 
given the opportunity of seeing the value and possi- 
bilities of this new shrub. The Buddleya is a deciduous 
bush, dying down in the winter. In the spring the top 
should be cut off quite close to the ground when the 
plant starts to make a new growth from the crowns in 
a manner similar to the Desmodium. The blooms come 
from the new wood produced through the summer. 
Buddleya is one of the most valuable plants, either for 
border or specimen planting, blooming as it does late in 
the season, and continuing in bloom from the latter part 
of June until nipped by the frost. It is very rapid 
growing, and two years will make a large spreading 
bush, four to six feet high. 
■ It produces long, graceful stems which terminate in 
tapering panicles of beautiful lilac-colored flowers that 
are of miniature size and borne by the hundreds on a 
flower head which is frequently 10 inches long. Being 
a semi-herbaceous shrub, we recommend covering the 
roots with manure, leaves or other suitable material as 
winter approaches, as this will produce a heavy growth 
the following season. Fine plants, each 20c, 2 for 35c, 
postpaid.
