Buddleia wanted

does anyone have any for sale? , I have a lilac/pink one and would like to add two more colours as the monarch butterflies really like them.

They are on the surveillance pest plant list, so you shouldn't be able to get them:

- They spread in the bush, in my experience have a HUGE root system, and the wood has to be burnt, as it can re-sprout even if it has been buried in the mud for 7 years. :(

Sorry for the bad news, happy 2016 to you too. :) In fact, i hope that maybe not being able to get buddliea is the worst thing for you this year! Hope that is the worst thing you hear for 2016 for you!

I used to work in a garden centre, and I'm sure that we had some cultivars that weren't invasive that we sold. It was a few years ago now, tho so may have changed.
