Buddleja davidii ‘Pink Delight’, or Butterfly Bush Pink Delight, is a medium-sized, vigorous, fast-growing, deciduous shrub with bushy habit and arching stems. Its leaves are long, lance-shaped, grey-green with white-felted undersides. Mildly-fragrant, tiny, bright pink flowers, with orange-yellow centres, are clustered in cone-shaped panicles. Very attractive to butterflies, bees, and hummingbirds. Buddleja davidii ‘Pink Delight’ is easily grown. It prefers moist, well-drained soils in full sun. It tolerates partial shade but it becomes weedy and sparse, with much less flowers. It is resistant to drought, generally pest-free and disease-free. Low maintenance and slightly salt tolerant. May die to the ground in cold winters but emerge again in spring. Considered to be invasive. Buddleja davidii ‘Pink Delight’ is best grown in informal, cottage, and wildlife gardens. It is perfect for a foundation shrub, an accent plant, or as a background in beds and borders.

Arundel Arboretum is a shrub and tree retail nursery with over 40 years of experience.

About Us

During this time, we have developed a large stock of trees, mature evergreen shrubs, conifers, Japanese maples, cedars and olives. What sets us apart from a generic garden center is solid unwavering focus on trees and some bigger shrubs. You will find thousands of trees, hundreds of varieties and lots of experts who are working on the nursery and more than willing to help you to choose a plant for you.

What you will not find is hot tubs, garden furniture and plastic garden gnomes. In a nutshell, trees is what we know and trees is what we do, and only trees (and some shrubs to go with the trees).
