Q.Is buddleia poisonous to rabbits?

Zone EN20PU | Anonymous added on March 31, 2020 | Answered

Creating a rabbit run on small raised bed and want to have shrubs on border…buddleia especially to attract butterflies for my granddaughter to enjoy. A list of a few plants, climbers or bushes that are rabbit friends would be really helpful too. Can’t find any site with definitive answers as to what is suitable. Thank you..from Buster and Dolly (the bunnies)!

To my knowledge, it does not present a problem for rabbits as a snack. A visit to your local extension service would be best to find out what plants in your area would be most compatible for your rabbits.
Here's an article on buddleia, or butterfly bush:
