Description
The ‘Petite Dark Pink’ is a wonderfully compact Buddleja which will add a splash of colour to a sunny spot in the garden. Dark pink-purple flowers open from magenta buds in summer and last into autumn, giving long-lasting floral interest: the flowers are held in conical clusters on long stems which reach out above the foliage. Slender, pointed, dark-green leaves that are slightly serrated at the edge make the perfect foil for the flowers.
The flowers are lightly scented, making this a great choice for sensory planting, and due to its dwarf form you can plant this buddleja in a large pot if you wish. We love planting it alongside another scented plant, like the Perovskia atriplicifolia ‘Lacey Blue’, but it will also work well when planted alongside another compact Buddleja.
