I have a new build house that is now 6 or 7 years old. The front garden was planted with shrubs. They have all merged and created a big overgrown expanse.
I want to make it look neater - is this the wrong type of year to trim shrubs ????
I have from what I can tell:
Some sort of rambling rose.
several Hebes
cotoneasters
... oh and another thing in amongst all of this are two MASSIVE plam things. Not trees but more like bushes.
They are about 6 foot tall and flower several black stalks with chilli like flowers.
Does anyone know what these are called? and indeed how to tame these aswell?
Sorry to be vague - as you can tell i am not very good at gardening.
