And here's a closeup of the foliage-

I'll be most grateful if anyone can identify it!

Without flowers, I doubt if anyone can. It could be a buddleia,
though most of them have furrier leaves, but there are a zillion
other shrubs with opposite leaves of that shape, and hollow
stems isn't rare, either.

If it's a buddleia, it will probably flower in the summer, or next
spring if not. It will not suffer from the chainsaw massacre.


Thanks. It is a bit nondescript, isn't it?
