The Sensational New Buddleia 
ROYAL RED 
Plant Patent Applied For. 
In presenting Buddleia Royal Red we believe we 
are introducing a new hardy plant that will be the 
sensation of the plant world for years to come. 
Royal Red represents 8 years of intensive breeding 
work, culminating in the first truly red Butterfly 
Bush. As a hardy summer cut flower plant and as 
an ornamental lawn shrub, Royal Red is unsurpas- 
sed in beauty and usefulness. From July until frost 
the plant produces an abundance of rich dazzling red pan- 
icles that attract instant attention. For garden planting, 
Royal Red is one of the most beautiful hardy plants that 
has ever been produced. The plant is hardy, grows 4 to 6 
feet high and the foliage is deep leathery green. The 
sturdy plants we offer will flower abundantly the first year.
