Also known as 'Himalayan honeysuckle' or 'Pheasant berry' it can reach a height of ten feet and a spread of four feet if left unchecked. Birds love the small black berries that appear in early autumn.

I cut back all the flowered shoots to new young growth and also cut out some of the older stems just above ground level to keep it in size for its position. It will seed quite freely you will find young ones popping up in unexpected places.
