I purchased one of these as bonsai some time ago and it never really excited me. So I threw it in a centre garden in our new house four and a bit years ago and CRIKEY in the ground this thing went off!! anyhow four years later and a need to cut the thing back I managed to dig out enough runners and cutting to put 10 in the ground at the front of the property as a hedge, kept two more for another attempt as bonsai and still two more are growing in the garden in the original spot. They still haven't impressed me as bonsai, it seems in the pot they slow right down in their growth and are a little more leggy than in the ground. The hedge ones have absolutely taken off again.
Have managed a semi- decent cascade,

and this one, which I simply persist with, still love the flower though,
