Best mixed in with other shrubs, not a specimen shrub but does need some space. Potted it up the first year in larger pot and kept in sheltered but sunny spot. Planted out this year in the garden. This gave it a better start.

Healthy plant. Bloomed within weeks of planting and looking forward to good growth and lots of lovely deep red blooms this summer.

To blend in with roses in top of garden where only gets sun first half of day. So many flowers very colourful for first year very pleased.

This arrived a lot smaller than I was expecting and took a while to get going. I grew it in a pot as I didn't have room in the ground. At the end of this year it has developed a pleasing shape and been quite floriferous for its size. I'm expecting it to be taller this time next year. The colour is very striking without being garish, and goes well with the planting colour theme in my garden.

Used to attract butterflies, bees and insects. Does the job well. The plant is small in size and looks fabulous in a pot adding colour, interest and wildlife to a patio.

I planted this at the rear of my south west faving garden and it has established, with a brief flowering period but is a slow grower. I'm hoping it will kick on in its second year.

Delighted with this plant. It went in late spring just before the very long, dry 2018 summer, yet it established brilliantly. Watered fairly regularly but that was it. It put on excellent growth and flowered really well. Flowers are a lovely deep/bright magenta.

A beautiful statement plant. It has massive, wonderfully scented flowerheads (by far the largest I have seen), which on mine have reached over a foot in length. These bring in lots of butterflies and bees. I believe this plant only grows to around 6ft so is great for a small garden or patio. My plant hits around the 5'5" mark currently in its first year, and is looking very strong. I highly recommend this Buddleja which I regard as one of the very best I have come across.
