What's Blooming Now - Butterfly Bushes 08/07/10

I have 3 varieties of butterfly bushes: White Profusion, Lindleyana, and Griffin Blue.

They are particular favorites of butterflies. But bees and hummingbirds love them as well. I watched the butterflies for a long time today as they flitted around my butterfly bushes.

This is Buddleia davidii 'Griffin Blue'

Above is a close-up of a Griffin Blue flower.

Below is Buddleia Lindlleyana cascading over a fence next to Dawn Pink Canna.

In the picture above you can see how beautiful, delicate, and unusual Lindleyana blooms are. It is my favorite.
