Buddleja davidii BUTTERFLY TOWER 'TOBUD1305'
A tower of flowers for butterflies!
Description
Buddleia BUTTERFLY TOWER is remarkable for its highly original structure – growing in the form of a tight column. Its foliage is dark green and neatly lanceolate; its flowers form long upright spikes of deep purple. Each flower is a rich source of nectar, attracting bees and butterflies throughout the summer. A hardy shrub, easy to cultivate and compact, BUTTERFLY TOWER requires less space than traditional Buddleias. As a result it may be grown in isolation or in hedges as an excellent, colourful screening shrub.
Care
Cut back at the end of winter to about 30 to 50 cm above soil.
