    What a lovely Buddleia!

    We don't have any of those as they need more room than we'd want to give them - though there ARE dwarf versions which I might try...

    (Lovely shots of both insects too!)

    Yes they are quite big, ours was cut back at the end of April and still managed well over a metre of growth afterwards.
