These pretty creeping flowers have just started to appear over our wall from our next door neighbours garden.  They are lovely and fit right into that part of our garden which has a waterfall and pond nearby, but can't remember what they are.  I am sure somebody can tell me. Thank you,  :) busy_lizzie

Thank you for that info, that is great to know.  The next door neighbours probably don't know either as they are not gardeners, so I am sure they will be interested too.  Very prompt reply and very helpful.  Thanks again.  :) :-* busy_lizzie

Busy_lizzie. Just awarded myself a star ;D why? Cos I actually knew that one. I planted one beginning of year and it has covered the whole of the back of my garage (10ft wide).....so......do we cut it back when it has finished flowering?  Lorna

You can cut it right back to the ground and it will be as nice as it was this year. :) It grows really fast as you have probably noticed. ;)

If it is the same as the photo they are very forgivving.  You can more or less hack them to pieces and they still come back for more.  If, on my advice, you end up killing it I have a million and one seedlings that come from the fruits if you allow them to fall so you can have a fail safe.  I have planted them up the fence at the lotty but the digger pulled 'em up.  I will have another go if it ever vacates the site.
Get with the beat Baggy
