The long whippy growth can be trimmed back in the summer if you like as it is a very fast grower and you don't need these long shoots for flowers. Cuttings or layered new plants should flower more quickly I think - but some never flower - my sister gave me a ten year old plant from Wisley and ten years later I dug it up as it had never flowered. Try some seeds too though - if you get flowers in fifteen or so years time you will be pleased - if not you will have had the greenery. PB    Report
