Dwarf Buddleia Buzz - how easy to buy?

Hi, I was wondering if many garden centres and nurseries stock these and when they are likely to be available to buy as a large plug plant? Prefer to go and get one myself rather than buy over the internet.

 

Cheers

    I've seen them in most of the larger garden centres, but they tend to stock them only when they're in flower - that's when they catch the customers' eyes.

    If you put Buddleja Buzz plugs into google youi'll find some online stockists.

  • I'm a bit wary of buying plants online, ever had any problems?

    If you buy from reputable online nurseries you'll get much more choice of variety and probably better plants than from a garden centre.  We have a thread of recommendations http://www.gardenersworld.com/forum/talkback/the-good-guys/175670.html

  • Any near the Sheffield area?

  • If you check your GW magazine regularly these are always on offer every year from T&M, usually as free plants just pay postage ie 3 for a fiver. They are actually pretty big plugs usually, and as buddleja are tough as old boots i would not worry so much about them being small, unlike the usually tiny perennials.
