Jasmine help

This is my clotted cream jasmine.had it about 3 years and it's gone quite leggy but never had masses of flowers. The flowers that do grow are gorgeous and smell lovely but soon drop off.
Do I need a bigger pot and where and when should I prune it?
Tia!

Yes a bigger pot would be helpful, maybe a bit of shade? (I can't tell if it has any). It takes a while to grow in my garden even planted in the ground. The heat has helped the flowers appear this year.

Oh sorry, I wouldn't bother pruning it unless it gets very out of shape esp. early on!

Needs a huge pot,big as you can afford.

Leaves look a bit pale. It would benefit from fresh soil

Personally I would plant it in the ground rather than a pot. Or at the very least a much much bigger one.

Thanks, all very helpful! We moved into a bungalow easier this year and it is currently situated outside my front door and gets full sunlight. I've inherited a chaotic garden (house is rented) so there are lots of plant pots around i can transfer it too,although not sure if I've got one much bigger than its current home.
Will get onto it today while it's nice! Thank you!
