Art: Birdhouse And The Buddleia by Artist Sherry Key
This is my third Buddleia...I have got to stop now...I am pretty sure this is the last one...

I did a bit of research on the “Butterfly Bush” otherwise known as “Buddleia.” It was educational for me because I really had never heard of it. I found out it comes in all kinds of colors and really can attract butterflies by the hundreds. I learned that it’s flowers have on the average, four petals and each bunch of flowers look like they kind of grow in the shape of a cattail.

Known as the Butterfly Bush because their strong scent attracts butterflies, bees and moths. Some types with the red flowers attract hummingbirds.

Acrylic, colored pencil, marker on archival clayboard.
