Buddleja 'Podaras1', selling name = Flutterby Grande Vanilla, is a sterile hybrid cultivar that Peter Podaras raised while at Cornell University in Ithaca, New York.[1] Flutterby Grande Vanilla is the result of a crossing of B. × weyeriana 'Honeycomb' × B. davidii.[1] Cornell received United States plant patent number USPP22080P2 for the cultivar on August 16, 2011.[1]
Description[edit]
Flutterby Grande Vanilla has an upright and spreading habit, growing to a height of 48 in (121.9 cm) – 72 in (182.9 cm) and a width of 48 in (121.9 cm) – 72 in (182.9 cm).[1][2] The plant's 11 cm (4.3 in) long and 5.8 cm (2.3 in) wide inflorescences are compound terminal and axillary conical panicles that each contain about 525 flower buds and creamy white faintly fragrant flowers with orange eyes that face upright and outward.[1] The opposite, narrowly elliptical deciduous leaves are about 15 cm (5.9 in) long and 2 cm (0.8 in) wide, with lanate surfaces.[1][2]
The plant flowers from late spring to fall. It is suitable for use in mass plantings, under power lines, in wildlife habitats, near water gardens or ponds and rain and rock gardens and as cut flowers and an accent plant. It attracts butterflies, bees and hummingbirds.[3]
The plant's patent application states that the cultivar's flowers are sterile and that seed and fruit development have not been observed.[1] Because the cultivar is non-invasive, the governments of the northwestern U.S. states of Oregon and Washington have approved it for sale within their jurisdictions, unlike their bans on B. davidii.[4]
Cultivation[edit]
Sooner Plant Farm in Keys, Oklahoma, markets Flutterby Grande Vanilla in the United States.[3] The shrub is reportedly hardy to −29 °C (−20 °F).[2]
Hardiness: USDA zones 5a–10a.[2]
