It has been ridiculously warm here today given this is NE England by the coast - 31C in the Magic Garden at one point today. Its also of course still very dry. I wasn’t at work so largely was pottering around. As a post-physiotherapy treat, I bought some not quite dead plants including a buddleia lochinch and a Baby Barnsley lavetera. I have trimmed back the plants, generating cuttings. The buddleia looked much better afterwards. I had already taken one from the buddleia Buzz Hot Raspberry that I planted out in the front garden today.

The buddleia fits in well into the top end of the front garden colour-wise. I soaked it so it should hopefully be ok despite the weather.
