?!?!?!? D'you mean your buddleia is still flowering, johnd ?!?!?!?
Re: WHAT'S GROWING IN YOUR GARDEN ??
No planting it but I mean it takes hold and does well. When should they flower. It's very small and thin at the moment.
Re: WHAT'S GROWING IN YOUR GARDEN ??
The flowering time depends on the variety (there are lots 'n' lots) - from late winter/early spring right through to late summer.
Good value, buddleias - and good for goldfinches in winter.
Rather contentious as to when to prune: always gets us going !! I prune in mid-March but some prune before winter. I don't go for that because the seedheads are very valuable food for finches.

I prune mine to 3 - 4 feet in January, then again but lower in April this makes sure they flower a bit later in the year.
