They are beautiful, there was a huge one in one of the gardens that backs onto our work - had been there years and was the most gorgeous colour and a great shape. Was completely ripped out during a bad storm a couple of years ago - I was gutted! 😳

@tuckemunderpaws Mainly just leave it to get on with it. All I did with mine was give it a light pruning once it's finished flowering to keep its shape & get rid of any unruly bits sticking out. Had mine in a pot for 2 years since I got it, but it has thrived after being planted out last year in the clay soil here.
