Buddleia: The plant that dominates Britain's railways and Wastelands . Defra says the highly-dispersible seed of what was originally a garden plant has resulted in extensive buddleia populations in the wild, where the shrub has often out-competed native vegetation and reduced biodiversity. Gardeners are being asked by Defra to remove seed heads after flowering to prevent its spread before it becomes "ubiquitous". The plant can cause damage to buildings, such as crumbling brickwork - its tiny wind-blown seeds can germinate in decaying mortar
