Will remain in a pot overwinter, as I think, like Amistad it might be tender. Will be planted out after frosts next year in this position against the bungalow wall.

Amistad is in the ground in the photo on the right. I have cuttings in the conservatory of that so if it doesn't make it through the winter, have another. Quite dry close to the wall, gets sun most of the day.

The wall should keep it warm but safe you have cuttimgs in side wise.

Sorry 3pb, do you mean the pic is sideways on? That happens if I take the photo in portrait mode, then import onto my Ipad.

Oh, I understand, you meant the stem pointing to the right. I have already taken one cutting, the only side shoot with no flowers.
