prune a 1/3 of the stems down to about 2ft [after flowering and then the new growth needs tieing in as close to the horizontal as possible. this will then flower lower down. repeat the cycle next year with another 1/3 etc and in time it will be flowering all the way up. if you follow what I'm trying to say that is.

No advice just thanks for the good laugh... I had this image of an elderly rector rambling all over the countryside!
