BUDDLEIA—The Summer Lilacs 
Often called BUTTERFLY BUSH because of their attraction to butterflies. We 
consider these four the finest of the newer varieties. Plant several in your shrub 
or flower garden, as their richly colored, fragrant blooms come at a time when” 
flowers are scarce, and they last a long time. Excellent for cutting. Snowbank is 
pictured at the left, while Royal Red, Charming and Empire Blué are shown in color 
on page 43. In colder sections, protect through the winter the same as perennials.
