Plant question

I have a huge Butter Fly bush in my yard, 8' tall x 4' wide. I didn't see it listed in the safe plants. I was wondering could I put my veiled on it to bask and get some other live food? There are many butterflies, moths, bees, wasps, etc. I am concerned about the bees and wasps hurting it plus are the flowers safe in case it eats one?
 
Compare the bush in your yard to this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:BuddlejaDavidiiStrauch.jpg if it looks the same it is widely used as an ornamental plant, and many named varieties are in cultivation. Within the United States, it is classified as a noxious (harmful or injurious to health or physical well-being) weed by the states of Oregon and Washington. If I were you I wouldn't put my veiled in and just spend $20 on a ficus tree or something.
