my thought was a spirea. but not certain.

Yes, a spiraea, one I love but hard to find these days, does not seem to be in any lists, but you see it in gardens here in the South West.

Spiraea rosalba I think.

Thanks for your suggestions will check it out

Not a Buddleja, that's for sure.
I believe the fluffy Spireas are often cultivars or hybrids of Spirea douglasii, possibly.

My first thought was a Spiraea billardii such as "Triumphans" but the leaves are dark green and your leaves look almost blue?

I grovel!

You shoudnt Steragram, as the blue tint to the leaves still make me wonder!

You say the nicest things Drc... Must confess I've never seen a buddleja with fluffy flowers though.

It might be the focus that makes it appear fluffy?
