Buddleia White Profusion. White Florering Butterfly Bush

Buddleia White Profusion. White Florering Butterfly Bush

Buddleia White Profusion (Butterfly Bush) Commonly called Butterfly Bush White Profusion, the name says it all. This Buddleia cultivar will produce showy panicles of white scented flowers on long, upright, arching branches. It remains one of the most popular of the white-flowering buddleias and as its name suggests, it flowers abundantly. The flowers are white with golden, yellow, jewel-like centres. The large fragrant flower panicles can be up to 35 cm long and are extremely attractive to pollinators, particularly butterflies and bees.  The flowering period is late summer, around August. By deadheading the flowers, you can encourage Buddleia White Profusion to flower for even longer, sometimes right up until the first frosts. The scented flowers are very suited to use as cut flowers indoors.  Compared to other Buddleias, Buddleja White Profusion has a rounded bushy shape and will reach a height of about 2 metres. To get the best out of Buddleia White Profusion, it should be cut back to the ground every spring. This will encourage a more vigorous growth and produce more flowers in late summer. As with all Buddleja, White Profusion should be grown in a full sun position for best results. Other merits of the Butterfly Bush in general include its tolerance of poor soils. Buddleia White Profusion is perfect for growing in borders. Plant at the back at it will reach heights of circa 2 metres. It is a must-have magnet for all gardeners looking to cultivate a butterfly garden.Like most of the modern Buddleia cultivated varieties, Buddleia davidii ‘White Profusion’ (to give it its full name) is a cultivar of Buddleia davidii. Buddleia davidii is native to China where is was discovered in the 19th century. It carries the RHS AGM badge since 1993.  Interesting to know: Buddleia is also referred to as Buddleja, both versions deriving originally from Buddle, a British cleric and botanist after which the Buddleia genus is named (although his area of expertise was moss). Originally, the genus was christened Buddleja (with a silent j) as opposed to Buddleia, as the Latin form of Buddle would dictate.

Malus Domestica Delcorf Apple Delcorf syn Delbar Estival UK

Malus Domestica Delcorf Apple Delcorf syn Delbar Estival UK

Malus Domestica Delcorf or Delcorf Apple is synonymous with Delbar Estival. This is a mid-season dessert apple tree. Created in 1956, in France, this apple tree is the result of a cross between Golden Delicious and Stark Jonagrimes varieties. This mid-sized, spreading deciduous tree produces heavy crops of sweet, crisp apples.Late to flower, blossoms emerge in May, completely covering its crown. Pale pink once they unfold, the flowers fade to white before they drop. They have a pleasant scent and are irresistible to beneficial pollinators, which is why this apple tree won the Perfect for Pollinators badge. The fruit follows in the autumn and can be picked from the tree in late September. The Apple Delcorf fruit is greenish yellow, flushed with red, somewhat larger than standard varieties. The taste of the juicy apple flesh is very sweet, honeyed and with hints of aniseed.Easy to grow and to care for, Apple Delcorf prefers loamy soils, well-drained and medium fertile. This variety can be planted in full sun and partial shade, but growing it in a sunny spot will encourage a more abundant crop production. However, if allowed to crop too heavily, this cultivar can become biennial bearing. To ensure this cultivar yields fruit each season, thin out the excess apples early to mid-summer.Since Malus Domestica Delcorf is not a self-fertile plant, you will have to plant a second apple tree of a different variety nearby for cross-pollination. In case you do not have enough space in your garden to plant more trees, you can rely on apple cultivars in your neighbourhood or pollinating insects.  Fully hardy in the United Kingdom, this dessert apple tree can survive even if the temperatures drop to 20 degrees below zero. Although quite robust, Apple Delcorf will appreciate sheltering from late frosts, as they can damage its blossoms. For its outstanding qualities and good constitution, Malus Domestica Delcorf received the coveted Award of Garden Merit by Royal Horticultural Society.In addition to fruit thinning, this apple tree will appreciate routine pruning. The method of pruning will depend on the shape of the tree, but, as a rule of thumb, pruning once a year is sufficient to keep the plant in optimal shape. Compact, with a lovely natural habit, this apple tree is grown for its decorative value as much as for the edible fruit it bears. Once fully mature, this tree will be around 4 to 8 metres high and across.
