You surprise me Nick, my officinale scents the whole garden when in
flower but i agree about the pruning!! I have stephanese on my front
wall which isn't quite so strong growing and the variegated one on my
own pergola but it doesn't do well.

I added the idea of annuals just to get them started this year
