hi, I grew this from a cutting from my OH’s garden but neither of us know what it is called. Tried Googling it but still no joy. The flowers are on graceful arching stems. I need to know so I can prune if required. Any suggestions? Many thanks

Leaf shape looks more like Spiraea vanhouttei.
See leaf tip.
Maybe yellow leaf one Spiraea vanhouttei Golden Fountain.

Compare to leaves on Spiraea japonica 'White gold' with pointed tips.

. I think it might be Golden Fountain. I’ll plant out accordingly
