Thanks for that verdin shame I can't a picture of.well I was going to order another one from magazine but it says grows to 40cm high well that's the height of mine at allmine must be 4ft
Are you sure it's Hypericum calycinum Tracy? This is an invasive ground cover plant (see what sotongeoff sas a few posts ago). I wouldn't describe that as a large shrub. It's large in the way it spreads but 18 inches would be as tall as it goes, often less.
There are some, eg a cultivar called Hidcote that go to about a metre and a half. These are a lot more refined, garden worthy and often seen in GCs

Oh that-had one of those and dug it out last year-trust me you cannot split it-it was a real bugger to get out of the ground
You can hack it back hard though-it will come back-again -trust me
Do it now-well when it is nice to be outside-it will still flower this year

Oh Tracey-I can see you sitting there scratching your head all confused about what to do?
-is it possible to get to a PC to post a picture?
Wot a good idea geoff.
I love the way we all mix our metric and imperial. I can still eyeball heights in feet and inches but not in metric things.
I shall search for a pic of Hidcote
