Its great at the moment Dawn, something new every day, and the daylilies are about to start too :-))
I have another couple too DD but they suffered a bit in the bad winter I've had to cut all the dead wood,which didn't leave much, still they're growing well again now, this must be in a more sheltered spot as it was fine.

This has been here around 7 years Leigh and is around 6ft tall by 4-5ft across, you can prune it to size though I usually do it after flowering :-)
