I have a very tall Buddleia in the front garden. Right at the front by the pavement. It is about 4.5 meters tall.
I asked the gardener chap who mowes the lawn and chops things up to prune it back in March. He said it was too soon. I then asked him two weeks ago, he told me it was too late. It is sprouting new shoots like mad, I looked it up and it should be pruned hard in Spring. I asked him again today, as he came when I was at work, so on the phone. He said yes, yes and yet when I get home it has not been touched. He obviously does not think it should be pruned.
Am I right, what do you do with your Buddleia?
