Nursery contributed plant descriptions

We have Ian Barclay to thank for sharing with us his collection from high elevations in Peru of this distinctive Buddleia. Densely ranked leaves with a gleaming white underside and an urgent need to be vertical. This will in time make a small tree. The flowers are small with orange and tan hints.
