Buddleia alternifolia 26/3 Restock Woodlanders obtained the Louisiana bluestar

Woodlanders obtained the Louisiana bluestar years ago from Brookgreen Gardens on the South Carolina coast

frequently along streams and in rich hammocks from Virginia south to the Florida panhandle and west into Texas

The slim leaves read almost like bamboo from a distance and pair well with ferns

The edging reads almost like a picotee

long scattered raw over salads
