I shall have to dig it up this year and replant as its way too big for the border, but it has sentimental value as I got it from Great Dixter and the dear late Christopher Lloyd was one of my fav garden writers

thanks Angie-you need to make sure you have good support round this plant, any heavy rain at this stage will flatten it

Angie-this year I invested in some reallystrong steel supports, they are so much better than the plastic links type and they were cheaper
