Looking good!

I'd say jasmine would be one of the more resilient things I have in the garden keeps growing into and strangling shit this time of year. I go at it pretty heavily just to give the other stuff a chance. Always bounces back. It's probably 40+ yrs old.

Yeah true, I've seen them take down entire fences. I'm conscious that this little one is still small/young but it's also been doing p well so don't think I need to worry about vigour when I do prune it - would likely be after the flowering season and heading into winter.

it's currently growing in a deep but narrow tree seedling pot and doesn't seem rootbound, I'll maybe repot it in another year's time depending on where I end up.
