Momac - I chop mine back early spring. I read about it in a gardening book first because I am not well up on shrubs and I think this helps to keep it in check a bit. Although it is getting a bit big now - I whipped a cutting from a neighbours bush, and I'm glad I did because they have since got rid of it. There is one growing next door and that is quite huge, it is also very sturdy yet its had no care whatsoever. Like you, I wanted it for the bees and butterflies - I bet yours will be beautiful, I've never seen a white one before.
