Wow Amy, it was a tiny thing when I sent it. I've checked mine and not as good as your's. I grew them from seed, I only after about 3 around, they are nice and can get big I believe. Glad you're looking after it. x

Lol Dawn just like me the bigger the better, I have one I bet you'd like sent to me by Botanicalady on here, Stygiana ,quite a rare plant in the wild,I was quite nervous about where to plant it as it dislikes cold winds,I eventually planted it last autumn,after a year deciding while it grew a bit, at the bottom of the garden where it's a bit more sheltered it's got going really well but don't know how long it ll be before it flowers gets to 6ft tall by 3ft across with honey scented flowers Botanicalady has a couple of very nice pictures of it ;-)
