Hello All--
I am wanting to find a starting or two of this beautiful butterfly bush---Fountain Butterfly Bush (Buddleia alternifolia 'Argentea'). If anyone has a rooted starting or two of this to share with me, please look at my trade list to see if I have any plants or shrubs to interest you. I also have other plants available not on my list if you would let me know what you would like to have in exchange. I would really really like to add this butterfly bush to my gardens. I do thank you for your time and consideration.

That IS a beauty. Did anyone see this link in Garden Gate about training it as a standard?

Gosh I don't know! I would probably try it with one that I could live without if I killed the poor thing!

I've been giving this some consideration, though! I found some fountain butterfly bush in the tube size for @$7.95. The "tube" is a pot that is 2x2x6". Seems kinda $$

:-D
