I know you all have heard this some umpteenmillion times...but here goes the umpteenthmillion and one time.

Does anyone know where I can purchase the Kaleidoscope Butterfly Bush locally? I have really only seen maybe two color kinds.

I did purchase two seedlings...they are about 18 - 20 inches in height with one lone bloom on each. I will be transplanting their new home in the front near a window. But...I was so hoping for a more substantial planting...I want to be sure of it's show next season. They are part of the focal point which will includes a solar birdbath w/a garden arch over it. The arch will have Jasmine vines on either side (the type that can take full sun) and the garden will be constructed of cinder blocks with multi color flowers in the holes of the blocks.

I love to sit out and watch the butterflies and birds enjoying them.

BUT...as I said...the butterfly bush is really important to this. IF I can find them. Thanks
