Default Butcher's Blue?

...
A fellow gardener from Ballinger has asked if I would try and find out
about a plant with the name of 'Butcher's Blue' or, she says, it might be
Blue Butcher.
She doesn't know what the rest of the name is, I gather she saw it in a
garden near Banbury, but she would love to buy a plant.
I've suggested Butcher's broom but she says it's definitely got BLUE in
the name.

Any suggestions?
I will get her to send a description if that helps.


A description would certainly help. Is it a tree, a shrub, a flower,
flowering? What does the flower look like? Is it a grass, a Euphorb, a
hollyhock-type, a carrot? Any descriptive info would be useful. Does she
have a digicam so we could see a photo?
