Looks like Buddleia, a favourite of bees.

And for butterflies, especially Peacocks in my experience!!

It's a weed imo but the white version looks quite nice

One mans' plant is another mans' weed.

We've some buddleia, not so much prune it as hack it down nearly the the ground about once a year. It produces quite surprisingly woody stuff to get rid of but the shredder chomps it quite successfully.

As said, bees and butterflies love it.

I enjoy a Buddleia with a Red Admiral



or a Small Tortoiseshell



but a Peacock in a sea of green is also nice,

I was in Farlington yesterday, and I spotted this (I could not post it sooner, as I did not get home until very late).

A bit of precision parking today! Did this in one go and without looking too closely at what I was doing...

More by luck than judgement

Scamps were still being built up until a couple of years ago, but the owner put the business up for sale and it doesn't look like they've had any takers yet.

The first load of rubbish to go to the tip this afternoon...

First of several I expect. My poor little Saxo is full to the top..

Mick, those big sacks you recommended I buy work well

[mickthemaverick]

Excellent, looks like we were right about getting two of them in Sally at a time too!. Won't take too long to get it all cleared. Still on for Friday?

[Peter.N.]

I have a load to go as well. Good job its a small car because the rubbish multiplies to fit whatever vehicle you have.
