i used to have four plants all against one wall and they were all the same height but my dog pulled the end two out so i only have the middle two and they are lovely now but obviously they only cover the middle part of the wall. am i able to take clippings to grow a new plant and how do i do it? they are still in bloom at the minute.

Yes - you can - see here. I find them quite tricky - but that could be just me. Good luck

thanks for that. the link says late spring. do you think it is too late now? should i wate til they blossom falls off?

Now will be OK - don't wait - try to pick a non flowering shoot if you can.
