Spotted these on my travels recently and which look like they might be the perfect addition for my lower front border. Can anyone please tag them for me.
thanks

    No2 benefits from a fairly hard prune in Spring or it can  become a bit bare and leggy. Fine, if shown, you want it tumbling over a wall, but on the flat it's a bit messy.

    Thanks all.
    I now know what i'm looking for.
    @Hostafan1 tumbling over a wall is precisely the application i need.
    BTW, The pic was taken at Jamaica Inn, Bodmin.
