The Sensation of 1940 
In addition to being brand new, this is 
the best Buddleia in existence, having 
flower heads up to 24 inches in length, very- 
broad at the base. The fringed individual 
florets are ver-y closel-y set on the spikes 
and each has a brilliant orange eye. The 
color is soft cattleya. The blooms do not 
sunburn and keep well as cut flowers. The 
plants are strong growers, about 3 feet to 
4 feet high, and have very heavy foliage. 
This color, unusual in Buddleias, is espe¬ 
cially useful in floral arrangements, and 
with the extremely high quality of both the 
plant and the individual blooms, makes it 
certain that this will be the most widely 
used of all Buddleias when sufficient stocks 
are available. 
The buds and the newly opened flowers 
are the color of Concord Grapes, changing 
to a dark red, each individual flower has a 
blood-red eye shading lighter to the edge 
of the petals, making a very striking color. 
The flower spikes are of tremendous 
length (very broad at the base), and the 
flowers are produced in small clusters all 
around the spike, thus making a very grace¬ 
ful flower head. Plant grows strong and 
robust.
