I picked up this shrub at a boot sale some years ago and it's settled in nicely - well, more than nicely - very happily, it seems!
It's now about 8' tall and spreads perhaps 6' or so but I 'd love to know more about it.
I was told that it would have very fragrant flowers but although it's a profusion of colour in summer it's hardly scented at all - it's such a shame.
Nevertheless the bees love it so we're keeping it but I don't know what it is! I thought it was a member of the jasminoides family but if so, why doesn't it smell?
Hopefully the photos will help - they're:
The shrub in July.
The shrub today after flowering.
A closer-up view of the flowers.
Details of the branches.
