Here's a tip, get rid of it, an invasive nightmare which causes lots and lots of trouble in garden and to properties. Plenty of alternative plants to attract bees, butterflies etc.

We have it, and I love it. Draws lots of butterflies.
It does get quite big and woody, but not found it an invasive plant in the sense of reseeding or spreading out everywhere. I would not put it too near the house or shed though.
