Detailed Information
While *Buddleja davidii*, the species from which many Butterfly Bush cultivars are derived, is native to **China**, the cultivar ‘Orange Sceptre’ is a **hybrid**. This means it was created through cross-breeding.
Therefore, ‘Orange Sceptre’ doesn’t have a single, specific “native region” in the traditional sense. It was developed in a nursery or breeding program, most likely in **Europe or North America.** Horticulturalists breed plants like ‘Orange Sceptre’ to improve features like color, size, bloom time, and disease resistance.
