Default HYpericum~St Johns Wort~ Identification

Dear All,
Am a new gardener having inherited a beautiful garden and this
will be the first of many posts i'm sure.
I have a large bush which is tagged Hypericum, is this St Johns Wort or are
there varities of Hypericum? It is a large bush
about 2 metres high and wide.
I assumed StJohns Wort to be a smallish herb? I have some herbs one of which
I thought was StJohns Wort, it has 5 petalled flowers though its stems
branch like a buttercups, it does not have the perforations however like
i've read it should have. The large bush does... can anyone help?

Many Thanks..
