Thanks to all plant lovers who have responded to my my question - the information is very useful for me ... I think I'll try such a plant in my garden.
This morning I had some phone calls with nurseries in my area ...one nursery had a plant ...so I can look !

A nice friend wants to send me some seeds ...

Thanks again for your help

Hi Dom,

Thank you for your advices  :D - your plant Looks very nice with those many flowers

Good news from me :
We have bought yesterday this shrub  ;D
It is a big plant with 1,5 m high

The fragrance was not so remarkable ( maybe because the flowers was since long time open)

Again thank you to all
Hans
