Hello
Could anyone identify this shrub please? It's a fairly common spotted plant round our way. It has quite a citrus scent on the foliage.
I'd like one in my garden so any propagation tips would be appreciated :nowink:
Thanks

I think it's a Rose of Sharon /Hypericum not sure which one though

I've just had a quick search on Google and I think that's it!
Many thanks!

It may look nice, but I suggest that you be careful.
There was one in our garden, when we moved in over 25 years ago.
It was in the wrong place, and I dug it out, very soon.
However, even now, I still get many seedlings coming up, and these can become a deep- rooted nuisance very quickly.
