I've loads of that around my place, thanks to the birds around here It is quite nice, but does grow quite large.

I liberated a cutting from one in France but it didn't survive

[chris]

I'll see if I can get one to root, or if I find another small one that's growing I'll send it you, if you like binley?

My neighbour and I probably binned 20 odd of them last week when we were sorting out our front garden!

pretty please ........It will be for the centenary garden , and I have just the spot

GW's site says March - May to divide, I'll give it a go shortly though to see if it works. There's also the berries that they grow so easily from, so I'll sow some of those and see too. I *may* have one growing out down the side of my house (have seen an unidentified plant growing there), if it's the same leaves etc, I'll pull it out for ya.

I have some baby plants, according to my neighbour (all in the gravel by the side of my house) - dropping you a PM

My neighbour has it and it seems to self seed fairly easily.
