Nursery contributed plant descriptions

A wonderful plant with a much finer texture than most Buddleja, this Japanese species has showy clusters of two tone light and dark purple flowers and very dark green foliage, at least the plant we grow looks like this, the literature surrounding the name is rather confused. This receives more favorable comments than any other Buddleja in our collection, the original plant in Punnett's garden is now 9' tall, fully evergreen and suckering, it is unlike any other Buddleja we have ever seen.
