I have gotten in the habit of sitting with my plant while eating my lunch. I have started to think of it as my lunch companion, and rather enjoy its company. Today I finally looked up a little bit about my plant friend.
It turns out that butterfly bush's official genus name is buddleja, so I am going to name my plant friend Budd. Budd the butterfly bush. Varieties of butterfly bush live all over the Americas, Asia and Africa, so my plant friend could very well have started to grow here of its own accord, which makes me happy given the small space it has to work with. How did it get here? Where were its parent plants? How far did the seeds travel? Budd is such a tough little pioneering plant!
