| Origin | UK |
The 'Buzz' series of Buddleja davidii cultivars was released to commerce in the UK in 2009,[1] the result of seven years' intensive breeding and selection by Charles Valin of the UK's Thomson & Morgan nursery.
Description
Buzz Magenta panicles
The Buzz buddlejas make comparatively small, compact, rounded shrubs reaching 1.5 m in height, but still significantly larger than the rival American dwarf 'Blue Chip' series introduced slightly earlier and derived from complex hybrids.[2]
Cultivation
Buzz cultivars are relative newcomers, but already well established in the UK; they are included in the NCCPG national buddleja collection held by Longstock Park Nursery near Stockbridge, Hampshire.[2] Hardiness: USDA zones 7–9.
