                            Buddleja angusticarpa is a deciduous shrub that can be propagated from semi-hardwood cuttings taken in summer. It should be planted in well-drained soil in a sunny location. It can also be propagated from seed, which should be sown in spring in a cold frame. The seed should be sown on the surface of the soil and lightly covered. The seedlings should be transplanted into individual pots when they are large enough to handle.
