thanks spider
just back off holiday and when u say rather firmly, do u mean cut to the lowest stem with leaves on (as on some woody stems this is more than half way up the branch), or a few inches from the ground? will cutting it right down just stimulate it to grow from base?
also excusing my igorance is bonemeal a high potash fertiliser as i gave it some back in April. is it best to feed it that again or something else
