Moved late last year, as got so tall was flopping over other plants. Now it's in the corner between the garage and the back fence. About 2 ft tall at the moment.

Thats useful to know about it flopping over I have one of those round metal plant supports going spare so it will be going in place today before it gets the chance ..

I know some people keep chopping theirs down throughout the season to keep it tidy.

We chop ours down all through the year Siris......
