Lots of info here

Marjoram is a good one.

Sedums  are very good Justin, and easy to grow.

I bought some eupatorium last year and they were covered in butterflies and bees all the time they were in flower, but they are quite tall, but also architectural.

I second Euphatorium, very attractive to butterflies! Also Aster 'Little Carlow'.

If you go to the garden centre and ask for Sedum Spectabile plants, butterflies and bees love them, i bought some today : )

I've planted sedum, liatris, lupins and butterfly weed now as well as the buddleia
