Annie do you trim this back every year to keep it's shape, it looks really pretty, I bought a red one last year and it is quite straggly was wondering whether to take out the tips to try to thicken it up or would that mean losing the flowers, no sign of any yet.

I tidy mine up after flowering Olive but cut out any long stragglers as they appear

No sign of flowers on mine, I did cut some very long stragglers off the other day and noticed plenty of buds. This one is stunning... I'm just getting a waft of scent......mmmm
