Buddleja salvifolia
Buddleja salvifolia, commonly known as sage-leaved butterfly bush, is a deciduous shrub native to southern Africa. This plant is notable for its fragrant, cone clusters of star-shaped flowers of a blue-lilac colour, attracting a variety of butterflies and other pollinators. The leaves are lance-shaped and resemble those of sage, hence the common name.
The plant typically grows to a height of about 1 to 2 meters and can spread wide, making it suitable for garden borders or as a feature plant. Buddleja salvifolia prefers well-drained soil and full sun, thriving in a range of climates but is particularly suited to warmer regions. It is relatively drought-tolerant once established, making it a low-maintenance option for gardeners.
In addition to its ornamental value, Buddleja salvifolia is sometimes used in traditional medicine in its native regions. However, it is essential to manage its growth, as some species of Buddleja can become invasive in certain environments.
