heathe-cousin with leaves like evergreen fur, pretty little pink

5 BUDDLEIA or BUTTERFLY BUSH 1 
Flowers of soft blue, lilac, lavender, rose- 
violet, glowing wine purple, sometimes in 
pink, and one or two species even of orange, 
are carried in long, dense tapering racemes 
over a period of many weeks. At Philadel- 
phia, most of the Buddleias are winter-hardy 
shrubs. In colder climates they may behave 
as herbaceous perennials, only the roots 
living over, and new stems arising each 
season. Since they bloom on the new growth, 
this doesn’t lessen the number of flowers. 
Buddleias grow with ease from seed, usually 
giving a truss or two of bloom first year 
from early sowings. Illustrated opposite. 
We offer a mixture of both hybrids and 
species in full color range. Order as BUDD- 
LEIA SPECIAL BLEND. Pkt. 20c; Vg
