Just bumping this in case anyone knows? I really want to ID this Buddleia.
I found it growing wild. I was surprised as I thought the non standard ones were hybrids, that would revert to the normal pinky purple from seed. -

Thanks.
They don't normally have the orange centre or white bit in the flower, and it's a light blue, rather than pink or purple. Looks more like one of the more unusual ones to me.
I'm in the process of creating a bee and butterfly garden out the front (Okay, I'm planting wildlife friendly, tough plants and leaving them to it!) and have been Buddleia reserching/hunting. Surprisingly, there's over a hundred varieties.Last edited by BFG; 20-09-2009, 07:29 PM.Comment

Thanks both. I'm pretty sure it's not the bi colour/Flower Power one though (I already have that, brought reduced from Parkers earlier in the year.).
The closest I've found is "Nanho Blue":

The google pictures seem to vary, but it's very close in a few of them.Comment
