Fingask Friday Flower - Buddleia - the butterfly bush - pictured at Fingask with a Red Admiral Butterfly. Carl Linnaeus the famous Swedish botanist, who created our binomial system of naming living things, named the plant in honour of botanist Adam Buddle. It thrives in poor dry soils and can handle extreme urban pollution, after the WWII in Britain it was well known as the bombsite plant as it naturally colonised the ruined city's rubble and bombed areas bringing colour and life to grey landscapes.
