BUDDLEIA 
Butterfly Bush or Summer Lilac 
The heading- under which these plants 
comes explains that they are summer 
flowering bush form plants. For a good 
many years we had in cultivation only 
the variety Magnifica. In recent years 
more worthy and better types have been 
added. The Buddleia are without ques¬ 
tion one of the most valuable items for 
florists.

spreading shrub, with rich green foliage 
and silver reverse, bearing in late sum¬ 
mer, long racemes of purple flowers.

YAHIABILIS MAGNIFICA. This is really 
a shrub but the top usually freezes back 
and new growth starts from the root 
like other perennials. Plants grow three 
to four feet and are covered with long 
racemes of lilac-like flowers all summer.

grace of its flower spikes and uni¬
