Buddleja fallowiana is a species of flowering plant in the figwort family Scrophulariaceae.[1] It is endemic to the Yunnan province of western China, where it grows in open woodland, along forest edges and watercourses.[2] The plant was collected in China by the Scottish botanist George Forrest in 1906, and named in 1917 by Balfour and Smith for George Fallow, a gardener at the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh. Fallow had died in Egypt in 1915 from wounds sustained fighting in the Gallipoli Campaign.[3]
