they both need to be in the ground, or in much, much larger pots. Buddleia never does really well in a pot, it wants to put on 12 feet of growth in a season, and it can't when its roots are contained. The jasmine too looks like it wants to grow, but can't. And from the picture, that is definitely drought evidence on the leaves - unless there's some infestation I can't see.
