Buddleja 'Summer Bird Violet'
Wonderfully fragrant.
This product is currently out of stock and unavailable.
Masses of violet blue flowers throughout summer and beyond. Butterflies, bees and other beneficial insects love these blooms.
With all new breeding, these true dwarf plants are well suited to both gardens and pots. The pretty, honey scented flowers (12-14cm) open on strong stems throughout the summer and with regular dead heading can extend into autumn. The flowers last well in a vase.
Quick to grow and establish, long lived, with flowers from an early age, this is an easy care addition to a garden or pot. A lovely, dense plant with plenty of appeal and a beautiful perfume. The flowers are good for picking and bringing the gorgeous fragrance indoors.
Plant in moderately fertile to humus rich, well drained soil in a sunny spot. Water to establish, then only if rainfall is low. Suitable for pots, where they should be watered as the mix begins to dry out. Prune back hard early spring to make way for new, bushy growth. They will grow larger in gardens than they do in pots.
