Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Selected for its heavy and long production of wonderfully fragrant two-tone lavender-blue flowers, its dense mounded (3-4't x 4-5'w) habit and its non-invasive seeds, this makes a great accent or hedge. S/M PPAF
Buddleia Flutterby Petite Blue Heaven is a dwarf butterfly bush that blooms continuously from early summer until frost with fragrant, lavender-purple flowers that attract butterflies, bees, and hummingbirds. The foliage is grey-green and fuzzy on plants under three feet tall and wide. Perfect for containers or small spaces. This cross between B. davidii and B. alternifolia is sterile and thus produces no seed. Some drought tolerance.
Beautiful blue flowers continuously bloom from early summer until frost. Silver foliage gives this plant an outstanding appearance, and a choice plant for borders and mixed containers.
