Notes

'Miss Molly' orange ball tree (Buddleia 'Miss Molly') is a shrub for borders, containers, and butterfly gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full or part sun and dry soil. Magenta, sweet-smelling flowers appear all summer without deadheading, and they draw butterflies, hummingbirds, and bees. It is sterile and makes no seed. It stays medium sized, so it suits smaller gardens.

Pairs well with Cat mint, Shenandoah switchgrass, and Globemaster allium.
