Butterfly Bush - Miss Molly
Butterfly Bush - Miss Molly Buddleia (Butterfly Bush) Miss Molly, Buddleia davidii 'Miss Molly', becomes the centerpiece of any bed or border! Miss Molly has a gorgeous color and wonderful fragrance -- butterflies and hummingbirds stop often to visit.

It will die to the ground and grow again in spring. The plant flowers on new growth, indicating it should be pruned in early spring. Leaves appear in late spring and remains late in fall. Zones 5-10. * This is an eye-popping butterfly bush!
