Buddleia, is known as the “Butterfly Bush”, and is an invasive species which has been spread in the UK by windborne seeds.
The Butterfly Bush typically invades areas such as abandoned land, quarries, wastelands, commercial sites , railways, canal banks, gravel areas, abandoned buildings and building sites.
Many homeowners grow Buddleia in their gardens due to the large flowers and beautiful scent it produces, but the plant grows aggressively and it will become dense unless it is maintained correctly.
Buddleia can cause other plants to die off, quickly seeding the area and taking over the habitat in which it is located.
Should you be worried?
Buddleia causes damage to structures, church buildings, abandoned or used buildings, paved areas, patios, driveways, paved or concreted yards, bridges, warehouses, boundary walls, etc.
Anywhere a small crack or a softening of mortar exists will allow a buddleia seed to germinate and grow.
The thickening roots and woody stems force masonry apart, cracking walls and damaging structures as it grows taller, stronger and thicker.
