Lagerstroemia indica (Crape Myrtle) 
Buddleia, the attractive Butterfly Bush 
BUDDLEIA 
These attractive, quick-growing ever¬ 
green plants are among the most satis¬ 
factory of our flowering shrubs. There 
are hardy varieties among this family, 
but the varieties we list, and which have 
finer flowers than the hardy ones, are 
natives of eastern Asia and are not 
hardy north. 
The fragrant flowers are produced in 
spikes or terminal racemes somewhat 
resembling lilacs and range in color 
from the pure white of Asiatica to the 
purplish violet of Lindleyana. They at¬ 
tract butterflies more than any other 
flower and it is from this fact that the 
plants derive their common name of 
Butterfly Bush. 
The Buddleias thrive in rich, well- 
drained soil in a sunny location. Their 
blooming period is unusually long; some 
of them after blooming all summer will, 
unless checked by cold weather, bloom 
right through the winter. The flower- 
heads are fine for cutting. For varieties 
and prices, see page 10.
