Lin, I'd have to open a Tree Philo store Hilarious!

It's not become more than one plant in the sense of running or becoming new plants in different areas, but it sends out lots of growing points from the base of the plant, giving an overall effect of a 10'W x 5'H big hunk o' green.

"I want mine to look like yours!!", she said whiningly. Other gardeners here don't know how or why theirs stay taller with less stems. Maybe mine is a mutant.

I might just try continually cutting it back to the base this summer to weaken it (ha!) and attempting to dig it out in the autumn.

Thanks so much for responding.
Monica
