Wow, thats gorgeous. I have one growing outside but it only ever flowers a little bit here and there. Never thought to bring it into the porch. Do you prune it or just leave it to grow on?

It's an indoor Jasmine but kept all year in an unheated conservatory...it gets cut down to three inches after it finishes flowering every year....some might say that's a bit drastic but it encourages lots of new growth and then it rapidly grows to flower brilliantly every year and it is never fed, just watered....it started out on one of those circular wire frames but they never do very well until they are potted up...I rescued it from a friend who had it bought for her one Christmas but after it finished flowering she chucked it in the bin saw it and fished it out...well worth the effort

It is lovely Lisa. I wish I could grow plants indoors. They take one look at me and keel over and die!
