About three months ago I purchased some Buddleia globosa seeds and planted these in pots comprising fertiliser, but so far there is no obvious sign that any have actually appeared.

I say "obvious" because in the meantime loads of small round leaved weeds (clover, I think) have been popping up, almost from the first day. To start with, I carefully nipped these out so they would not crowd out the Buddleia if and when these finally deigned to appear.

But suspecting I may have been inadvertently being weeding the Buddleia themselves, I decided to stop this weeding and let the Buddleia take their chances.

In a couple of the pots I have seen small pointy-leaved saplings which look different to the rest of the pesky weeds, and their leaves are more what I would expect a Buddleia (with its long leaves) to resemble.

So in summary, I wondered if anyone could point me to an image of a newly germinated Buddleia globosa plant.

While we're on the subject, does anyone know what kind of soil suits them best? I suspect the fertiliser I used may have been too rich or the wrong Ph, because the seed packets said they should sprout within about 30 days.

Thanks in anticipation.

Any images of baby Buddleia globosa
