Pruning buddleia

Assume it's davidii. I seem to remember that Geoff Hamilton used to deliberately chop his down in late spring to make it flower later so that he got lots of late summer flowers. So I would go for it. They are very tough and hard to kill (except with rich soil which makes them go a bit soft). They will re-grow from wherever you cut them, buds or no.

Didnt Monty on gardeners world the other week mention about a buddleia , personally id leave it for now , have a go early next year.
though nothing ventured nothing gained in giving it a cut now
i agree they do grow back quickly and bush up with pruning . i really hacked one back now its never looked healthier !
