    Evening Chaps, I've got 2 clumps of this rather nice shrub in the back garden. I've no idea what it is, the leaves are soft (not woody), it's perennial, is about 2.5 feet tall right now and looks a bit like mini conifer trees. It spreads in time and I think grows to about 4 foot high.

    I don't think I've EVER seen it before, I don't think it has flowers. Can someone identify it please??

    Ahh!! Thank Rodders very much! As I say, i don't think I've ever seen it before! It is rather a beauty, we devided a clump last autumn and now have 4 small plants against the fence at the front between us and neighbours. It will look a lovely divider between the 2 gardens when it grows. Just googled it and it says as you did - it can run riot! I'll be careful of that then.

    Thanks again,

    xx
