  • Butterfly Bush Buddleja Davidii Franch
    Weed of the Week Butterfly Bush Buddleja davidii Franch. Common Names: butterfly bush, orange-eye butterfly bush, summer lilac Native Origin: China Description: A perennial woody shrub with a weeping form that can grow 3-12 feet in height and has a spread of 4-15 feet. Opposite, lance-shaped leaves (6- 10 inches) with margins finely toothed grow on long arching stems. Leaves are gray-green above with lower surface white-tomentose. Small fragrant flowers are borne in long, erect or nodding spikes that are 8-18 inch with cone-shaped clusters that droop in a profusion of color. The flower clusters can be so profuse that they cause the branches to arch even more. Flower colors may be purple, white, pink, or red, and they usually have an orange throat in the center. It spreads by seeds that are produced in abundance and dispersed by the wind. Habitat: Butterfly bush likes well drained, average soil. They thrive in fairly dry conditions once established. Roots may perish in wet soil. Distribution: In the United States, it is recorded in states shaded on the map. Ecological Impacts: It has been planted in landscapes to attract butterflies, bees, moths and birds. It can escape from plantings and become invasive in a variety of habitats such as surface mined lands, coastal forest edges, roadsides, abandoned railroads, rural dumps, stream and river banks to displace native plants. Control and Management: • Manual- Hand pick seedlings or dig out where possible. Big plants may be difficult to dig out. • Chemical- Cut plants and treat stumps with any of several readily available general use herbicides such as triclopyr or glyphosate .

  • Butterfly Bush Memo
    To: The City of Somerville, Public Space and Urban Forestry, DPW, Buildings and Grounds Cc: Somerville City Council, John Long, Peter Forcellese, Mayor Curtatone From: Urban Forestry Committee Subject: Butterfly bushes on Prospect Hill and discontinuing their use in plantings We, the Urban Forestry Committee, request that butterfly bush or any of its less invasive varieties (i.e., Buddleja spp., the entire Buddleja genus) not be planted in any of Somerville’s parks, open spaces, civic spaces etc. and that the newly planted butterfly bushes in Prospect Hill be removed. If they cannot be removed before spring, they should be cut back so that seeds do not sow and germinate. Here is the reasoning for our request. Butterfly Bush, Buddleja davidii, is a woody plant from Asia that was brought over because of its beauty and ability to attract butterflies. Because butterflies feast on it, most gardeners believe that it is a helpful plant to have. After all, how could a plant that butterflies seem to love be bad? Butterfly bushes are not inherently bad, no plant is, they are just misplaced. We are in a 6th mass extinction. Our local birds, wildlife, and pollinator populations are in steep decline. Our Lepidoptera (butterflies and moths) whose caterpillars feed baby birds are particularly suffering. In order to increase their numbers we need to plant those plants that, in addition to feeding them, will host them so they can reproduce. Butterfly bush may feed a butterfly, but it will never serve to increase their numbers. This would not be a huge problem save for the invasiveness and pervasiveness of these plantsa,b.

Raymer2, and Judith A. Gersony1 ADDITIONAL INDEX WORDS. exotic plants, invasive, ornamentals, but- terfl y bush, Buddleja davidii, Buddleja japonica, Buddleja lindleyana, Buddleja ×weyeriana SUMMARY. Because of its weedy nature, extensive use in the landscape, numer- ous cultivars, and history as an inva- sive plant in other countries, butterfl y bush (Buddleja) was an appropriate candidate to evaluate for seed pro- duction and germination in Florida. Seed production was quantifi ed for 14 butterfl y bush taxa planted in western Florida (Milton) and central southern Florida (Fort Pierce). Each of the 14 taxa evaluated produced seed. In Fort Pierce, japanese butterfl y bush (B. japonica) had the greatest capsule weight and ‘Gloster’ butterfl y bush (B. lindleyana) had the second greatest capsule weight as compared to other taxa. In Milton, ‘Gloster’ had the greatest capsule weight and japanese butterfl y bush and ‘Nanho Alba’ butterfl y bush (B. davidii var.

  • The Disintegration of the Scrophulariaceae and the Biological Control of Buddleja Davidii
    The disintegration of the Scrophulariaceae and the biological control of Buddleja davidii M.K. Kay,1 B. Gresham,1 R.L. Hill2 and X. Zhang3 Summary The woody shrub buddleia, Buddleja davidii Franchet, is an escalating weed problem for a number of resource managers in temperate regions. The plant’s taxonomic isolation within the Buddlejaceae was seen as beneficial for its biological control in both Europe and New Zealand. However, the re- cent revision of the Scrophulariaceae has returned Buddleja L. to the Scrophulariaceae sensu stricto. Although this proved of little consequence to the New Zealand situation, it may well compromise Eu- ropean biocontrol considerations. Host-specificity tests concluded that the biocontrol agent, Cleopus japonicus Wingelmüller (Coleoptera, Curculionidae), was safe to release in New Zealand. This leaf- feeding weevil proved capable of utilising a few non-target plants within the same clade as Buddleja but exhibited increased mortality and development times. The recent release of the weevil in New Zealand offers an opportunity to safely assess the risk of this agent to European species belonging to the Scrophulariaceae.

    Production and Invasion of Butterfly Bush (Buddleja davidii) in Oregon by Julie Ream A PROJECT submitted to Oregon State University University Honors College and Bioresource Research in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Bioresource Research, Sustainable Ecosystems (Honors Scholar) Presented May 31, 2006 Commencement June 2006 AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Julie Ream for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Bioresource Research, Sustainable Ecosystems presented on May 31, 2006. Title: Production and Invasion of Butterfly Bush (Buddleja davidii) in Oregon. Abstract approved: ________________________________________________ James Altland ________________________________________________ Mark Wilson Butterfly bush (Buddleja davidii), an ornamental native to China, is an invasive species in Oregon and many other areas. In Oregon, butterfly bush invades disturbed areas, particularly riparian areas. The Oregon nursery industry has the highest farm-gate value of all agricultural commodities and butterfly bush is a significant plant to them. However, the nursery industry does not appear to be a major source of invasion because of their pruning production practices. Butterfly bush is a unique plant because it does not release its seed until mid to late winter. The dispersal mechanisms of butterfly bush are not well documented, but wind is one possibility. Formulations of glyphosate effectively control butterfly bushes up to two years old. Both spraying a dilute herbicide on the

  • Invasive Species Categorization for the Lower Hudson
    Invasive Species Categorization for the Lower Hudson The following document presents the species categorizations for invasive plants in the Lower Hudson region of the Lower Hudson Partnership for Regional Invasive Species Management. The Lower Hudson region encompasses New York county (Manhattan), Bronx, Westchester, Putnam, Dutchess, Rockland, Orange and the lower half of Ulster (divided by Route 206). Species are categorized into Tiers according to a standard state-wide system. New York State ranking evaluations are given for species where they exist. NYS Ranks with an asterisk (*) indicate updated ranks as of 12/22/16. This list should not be considered complete. Additional species will be evaluated and categorized as time allows. Currently the list primarily includes terrestrial plants, however it is the intention to include other groups and taxa over time. Our categorization decisions have been based on currently known and recorded distributions as well as local expert knowledge of invasive species occurrences. Most species’ distributions are incompletely reported -- everyone can help to provide a better picture of the current distributions by reporting observations to the New York State invasive species database, iMapInvasives (http://imapinvasives.org ). If you disagree with the assigned category or would like us to consider species which are not addressed here, you may send a note explaining your reasoning to [email protected] to be considered by the Lower Hudson PRISM focal species working group prior to the 2018 season. The current members of the Lower Hudson PRISM focal species working group include: Linda Rohleder, Daniel Atha, David Decker, Tait Johansson, Tom Lewis, and Chris Mangels.

Heaphy Scion, Private Bag 3020, Rotorua 3046, New Zealand Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract The buddleia leaf weevil, Cleopus japonicus, was released in New Zealand by Scion in 2006 as a biological control agent for the weed Buddleja davidii. One thousand C. japonicus adults were released at each of five commercial forest sites in the North Island. A further 33 releases of approximately 14,910 C. japonicus were made between 2006 and 2011 in the North and South Islands, on both privately- and publically-owned land and sites of conservation importance. The weevil is known to have established at all sites, with the possible exception of one release made in 2007. Location data of C. japonicus provided by local and regional councils, DOC, forest health officers and others have provided information on the spread of C. japonicus. These data show C. japonicus has spread over 50 km from some release sites and is rapidly increasing in population density and distribution.

Box 29237, Christchurch, New Zealand 4 Author for Correspondence; e-mail: [email protected] # The New York Botanical Garden 2009 Abstract Buddleja davidii Franchet (Synonym. Buddleia davidii; common name butterfly bush) is a perennial, semi-deciduous, multi-stemmed shrub that is resident in gardens and disturbed areas. Since its introduction to the United Kingdom from China in the late 1800s, B. davidii has become an important component in horticulture and human culture. Despite its popularity as a landscape plant, B. davidii is considered problematic because of its ability to naturalize outside of gardens and rapidly invade and dominate disturbed natural areas across a wide range of physical conditions. The primary goal of this paper is to synthesize what is known about B. davidii in order to understand the impacts caused by the continued presence of B. davidii in gardens and natural landscapes. We also address management of B. davidii and discuss the repercussions of management strategies and policies currently implemented to protect or remove B. davidii from natural ecosystems.

The Xanthorrhoeaceae has the largest representation with 10 genera and 99 species. Most are endemic with a few species of Lomandra and Romnalda extending to neighbouring islands. The family includes the spectacular blackboys and grass-trees. The Iridaceae is largely represented by naturalised species with 52 of the 78 species being introduced. Many of the introductions are ornamentals and several have become serious weeds. Patersonia is the largest genus with all 17 species endemic. Some of these are cultivated as ornamentals.
