I managed to get a bit of hedge cutting done yesterday and pruned a couple of shrubs. Today I was going to carry on but it rained until about 2pm so went for a walk instead when it faired up, as I couldn`t be bothered to start then as its dark before you know where you are.

Thanks for your reply Eric I will check it out, I don’t know what the tree surgeon used to kill it but it hasn’t worked so I will have to have a go at it myself. I will certainly have a look at this.

Thanks Karen
I have cut a lot back now for winter. Still got a bit to do, tidy up carnations and some of the front border rockery stuff is taking over so that needs doing. Problem is the weather it just starts to dry up a bit so you can get something done then down it comes. -

The small lawn that was here wasn`t worth keeping a mower for, it was also very messy in winter, so I laid the paving. Now I just pressure wash it a couple of times a year.

I think you are supposed to wait until spring to cut them back but I am going to do mine in the next few weeks and probably won`t get many blooms next year, but I have no choice with them at this size. I have a couple of good sized cuttings to follow on if all else fails.

They are starting to go back now Anne. I think I am going to have to do something with these before next year as they are outgrowing the pots.
