Buddlea

Genus: Buddleja.

Species: Buddleja davidii.

This is by the pond to provide some shade and does its job by providing privacy, it has doubled since I moved it 5 years ago.
Been cut back once by my partner in autumn and then again a bit more by my father in winter, a bit more than I had intended thats for sure. And lots of waste to get rid of. Lets see how bushy it gets this year.

Got cut down once again by my father, so two lots of waste and a bare looking tree. However in April 2008 started to recover and springing growth again.

August 2008, now beginning to flower and huge again, must be over 10ft.
