Don, 
After checking sites I trust and AHS (and even my trusty old Hortus3), I'd 
say it's definitely Zone 7, which doesn't have a prayer in Wisconsin. Maybe 
you'd like to try it in a pot and haul it in for the winter. I see Annie's 
has it for only $10 so, if you really can't break the craving, it's not that 
expensive to try.

I’ve always been intrigued by this shrub/perennial, but information on it’s 
hardiness are all over the (USDA) map.  I’ve seen some rate it to as cold as 
Zone 5 (me), although I’m pretty certain it would be a dieback plant this far 
north (SE Wisconsin).  I would be able to give it some protection by planting 
it on the south side of my house.

Does anyone have any experience with Buddleja globosa?  

Thanks,
