Butterfly Bush

Since I am interested in passalong plants, I like to see the differences in bushes that have been passed along for generations and the new improved ones.  The old variety above has much smaller purple blossoms.  It spreads much more vigorously and usually doesn't grow quite as tall.   This new variety has very impressive large blossoms and tends to grow larger.  The bush itself is usually more likely to succumb to neglect.
