It's lovely ... something has been nibbling the leaves off mine i'm not sure if it's Rabbits or Muntjacs , Grrr

pigeons nibbled mine down to ground level so i put a cloche on top till they were taller ~ they are fine now but not as good looking as this.

It could have been pigeons Sticki we have loads of them , in fact I would rather know it was them because once the rabbits and munjacs find a way through they will eat everything we have wire netting all the way round the garden , actually I did put a cloche over yesterday to save it ...
