I have taken cuttings from mine, leave it until its finished flowering and the wood is semi ripe, it won't hurt the plant to prune it then.

Don't be tempted to cut any for the house as it smells of tom cats.

Thankyou, i was going to say about the TC odour but i guess it would'nt be a ornamental shrub if it had a sweet smell but a perfect shrub....i cant imagine what sort of insect would be enticed by the smell, big big thanks. p

It is very popular with bees and early butterflies.

Its a Ribes [flowering currant]. An ornamental shrub. better to move it in the mid autumn when its dropped its leaves or very early spring before it flowers.
