These are lovely Trev arn't they. I have a huge bush and it looked absolutely beautiful last year. You can see it on my photos. Iam going to give it a bit of a haircut again this year after it has flowered. It did really well last time I trimmed it. Maybe I will have a go at trying some cuttings aswell. I have also been told that you can bake the seeds and plant these aswell. Have you ever tried cuttings Trev?
