Buddleja davidii 'Sophie'

Dwarf butterfly bush

'Sophie' is a new Buddleja that flowers from late April into the deep summer. This plant has beautiful long light-purple flowers on each stem. Like most Buddleja, the flowers have a very delicate scent which attracts many butterflies. The branches hang down from the plant shaping it into a beautiful sphere. The foliage of Sophie is light-green in summer, turning gray in autumn.
