Buddleja x weyeriana ‘Honeycomb’ at Digging Dog
Butterfly Bush
Around midsummer, when the pendulous racemes of flowers weigh down its boughs, it’s hard to decide which is more satisfying: Buddleia’s abundant, often fragrant blossoms, or the myriad butterflies they attract. Buddleja x weyeriana ‘Honeycomb’
Esteemed for its glorious yellow flowers, this recent Mike Dirr hybrid is a cross between davidii and globosa. A handsome silvery foundation supports the breathtaking spectacle of saturated clear yellow blooms. Enhanced by orange eyes, the flowers are held in globe-shaped terminal panicles some 4 to 6 in. long. Blooming for months on end, ‘Honeycomb’ looks vivacious with Persicaria ‘Summer Dance’ and Salvia ‘Blue Ensign’ in the mixed border.
Blooms mid-June–October. Size: 5'–7' high x 4'–5' wide; hardy to zone 6. Buddleja x weyeriana ‘Honeycomb’ (S-0558) SOLD OUT!
