Looks like a buddleia to me too....don't chuck it away- give it to a friend or neighbour!

(If you wait a few more weeks you'll be able to tell for sure from the flowers)

Yes, I'd say it was a buddleia too. Sorry, cheery tree, you're going to have to dig it up and give it to a friend. Better luck next time!
