    Hi,

    I am considering buying a specimen of this plant in a 2 gallon pot. Can you tell me what the spread of the plant is, and its general shape? The description that I read said it had arching branches, which makes me think of Buddleia alternafolia.

    I live within the city, on a 50x100 foot lot, so a thirty foot wide blob would not work for me. Also, do you have any idea how large this plant needs to be before it will bloom? Also, what is the bloom season, and how long do the blooms last? The description that I read said the fragrance resembled orange blossom, is it a highly fragrant plant? Does it require a lot of summer irrigation? (Portland has a two month dry season.)

    I live in Portland, Oregon So I expect our climates are somewhat similar.

    Thank you,
    Mary
