Taking cuttings from a Buddleia

[paparaw]

I've got 8 growing the front garden, all grown from cuttings just basically pushed about 6 inches deep into the soil. One is now about 14 feet high and is great for butterfly watching from my bedroom window. The only problem I've ever had with them is growing the white flowered variety. Has anyone got any tips on this? I think it may be my soil type.

Can't think why a white form of a buddleja would require anything different from other summer varieties!? Capsid fly and red spider mite are pests so look out for those. Have you tried growing cuttings in a pot with good drainage?
