UFO (UNIDENTIFIED FLOWERING OBJECT)


By chance does anyone recognize this pink, sort of shrubby perennial? It lives on the north side of the garage and is in shade most of the time. So it would probably be shorter if it got more sun. It has fairly large leaves. is about four feet tall and has a light, sweet scent. For the life of her mom can't remember what it's called. Not surprising, most of my nephews were still gleams in their mom's eye when this one was planted. Heck, for all I know it came with the house. LOL

Looks like a healthy Budlea petra. I had an "indoors" one,looked very similar but not as spaced out (roomy lol) Each flower had 4 petals exactly - if it's budlea you've got a very hardy friend there - mine lasted years. Say, why no way to follow "Hippie Gypsy"? I have it bookmarked - as I do this one - but there's no "Followers" googly to click. Namaste :-)
