Can anyone tell me why my buddliea flowers are like this? Can you tell
me how to fix it? Thank you

Those look like last year's dead flowers to me. Isn't it a bit early for
buddleia to be in flower?

Depends of the species, but the common B. davidii isn't in flower yet.

The only ones I know are B davidii, B globosa, and that other one with
round flowers in apricot which flowers a lot later. What other species
are regularly grown in gardens in the UK - or even uncommonly grown?
It's not a genus I've ever taken a lot of interest in.

My year starts with B. salvifolia alba around Christmas, this is followed by
B. madagascariensis in early spring then B. salvifolia in April, B.
fallowiana by June then all the davidias and one of my favourites B. x
weyeriana. later in the Autumn B. colvelii and forsterii are lovely. All
make splendid climbing frames for clematis!
