Well, you guessed it--I ordered "Buddleia Bicolor" this past spring and have it planted. I then find out through this forum that butterfly bushes are considered invasive. I've looked, but I can't seem to find any information regarding this cultivar as being invasive. Are all butterfly bushes invasive? Can I keep it if I deadhead it, or should I just sound taps and add it to the compost bin? I did check this cultivar in plant files and it notes "N/A: plant does not set seed, flowers are sterile, or plants will not come true from seed." I'm wondering if this particular cultivar is sterile--does anyone know?


Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!
