    Hi Endeavour,
    Well not too sure what your plants look like obviously, but to get spreading growth Trachelospermum jasminoides will spread faster if the upright shoots on any main side branches are pruned back to the main stalk, forcing it to make more side growth. If that makes sense... :scratch:
