This is a super easy to grow and bloom species, handling both hot summers and cool winters with ease. It also grows like a weed, readily producing multiple growths. Best of all is the wonderful scent, which reminds me of a combination of cherry and almond.
Yay, it's nice to see that someone else on here has one! They are lovely plants and, like you say, they are very easy to grow (even in the cooler English temps) and have lovely foliage as a bonus
