Doing so much better this year. The flowers on these dwarf ones are really big for the size of the plant...nice!

good for you! I tried a Buddleia Buzz, but must have done something wrong, because it fell over after a few months.
I checked a few "how to" sites, but most of them said that "Buzz" was too new a variety to give definite information on. Really helpful!!

Fell over Fran?

well, it faded badly and then died.
might have been insufficient sunlight, or too small a pot, meaning the roots couldn't spread - or i may not have fed it enough. I want to try another one sometime: i can't do much about lack of sun, but maybe I can do something about the rest of it.

Ah yes, that happened to my first one too. it was in a pot as well. This one is in the ground, and I think they are not as hardy as the big ones either. I would try a bigger pot.

thanks Karen, I will. I tend to use the smallest pot plants will fit in, because any bare soil is an invitation to squirrels to excavate. But got some glass pebbles now, so that should help to stop that.

Yes, it should do, and I think this plant needs quite a big root run.

I got it off eBay, not sure if that a factor! but I'll definitely get another one or three
