Thankyou :-) I love this shrub, so much so I have 4 now lol, the others grown from cuttings taken from this one this ones quite large now there is a greenhouse behind it that you can't even see now.
Remind me in a few weeks Dawn and I'll take some cuttings ;-)

I love it too. Wow, yes please, they take quite easily, dont they. :-)

Yes very easy Dawn I have several pinks too grown from cuttings from my mother in laws garden.
I have a yellow too Homebird don't think thats flowering yet, the original got crowded by a large tree but I found a new plant last year in another part of the garden that must have grown from seed from the birds maybe :-)

Thanks Kathy, I dont remember seeing a yellow one, you'll have to post a pic if you get chance ;-)

Thankyou Dd :-)I'd say its around 7ft the point of the greenhouse is behind there and its just slightly taller than that.
The flowers aren't the same as the pink and white Dawn but its very pretty its called Buffalo Currant (ribes odoratum), I must go check Rob hasn't chopped it, the seedling popped up among a hedge I saw him taking a machette to the other day eeeek, he's like a man possessed at the moment lol.
