A unique colour departure for the butterfly bushes: Buddleia ‘Honeycomb’ sports clusters of yellow flowers that deepen towards orange at the centres. Said to be one of the most fragrant cultivars. Blooms from June until November. Drought tolerant once established. This is a love child of Buddleja globosa and B. davidii. The form is mostly that of B. davidii. B. globosa influences the flower spikes breaking them up into globular bunches in shades of orange.
