Dwarf buddleia

in Plants

ithese seem to be offered in groups of two or three in some on line sites.  I want to replace a normal sized plant with a dwarf variety.. Question is which colour is best for butterflies and would it be best to plant a group of them, would one just look a bit solitary?

also can anyone recommend a nice scented Christmas box plant.

many thanks

GG

    And for the love of all thats holy, dead head the flowers when they begin to fade, not when they start to set seed. Your own garden, and those within a half mile will thank you for it.

    Well thats a blessing! They do tend to crop up in strange places in a city centre.

    I bought my buzz magenta a few years back when they were new on sale. Mine only flowers for one month usually around sept/oct. Dont know why and it bugs me

    The soil is fantastic its had compost and leaf mulch dug into it for years. Would fish blood and bone round the roots make a difference

    Ok, the buzz varieties seem to have some disadvantages.  Anyone used any other ones?

     

    thanks
