Hello Speedy - I think its the most popular variety: Philadelphus Virginal.

thanks dawnsaunt

You're welcome Speedy, I'll try and take some cuttings this month.

It looks gorgeous

Thanks Keasty

Sounds great Dawnsaunt.Will you please tell me what are its growth requirements.

Hi Camilla. Well, mine is in free draining soil, south facing. It gets a sprinkling of growmore in the Spring and a pruning in the Autumn and that's about it.

Thanks Dawnsaunt.
