From a great new series of compact Buddleias and Miss Ruby is a gem of a plant noted for it's compact habit and remarkable, vivid, rich pink blooms. This color is unlike any other Butterfly Bush AND its over silver leaves on stems that are well-branched which means lots of stem tips for blooms -- it's loaded.
