NEW PINK BUTTERFLY BUSH 
BUDDLEIA - Charming 
Charming. A real outstanding novelty among the summer 
and fall flowering shrubs. Vigorous and very free flow¬ 
ering, producing a profusion of large pink trusses which 
hold their pink color throughout the Summer and Fall 
and also under artificial light. Not only picturesque in 
the garden but extremely valuable as a late Summer 
cut flower. Young plants set out in Spring quickly at¬ 
tain a height of 4 to 6 feet and about four feet in di¬ 
ameter. Few other plants have attracted as much atten¬ 
tion and favorable comment. We suggest pinching off 
the first flower spikes in July so that the side shoots will 
develop and bring better flowers later in the season. 
Letter received from a Nurseryman who had a few 
plants for trial last season: 
“Last spring you sent us some Buddleia Charming. 
I watched this variety bloom this summer and was de¬ 
lighted to find it a decided pink. The pink shade seems 
to he especially pronounced now since cooler weather 
started. The plant produces nice full spikes. I would con¬ 
sider it a first class novelty.”
