Beautiful together,Annie..and glad to see that Choisya didn't succumb to your 'pruning' :o) mine is recovering slowly...very slowly !

Lol Bloomer mine is never coming back but I have several others including this one that are safe for now.
I'm glad I took a chance and planted this Acer, it's in the wrong position and soil type but seems to be thriving. The combo will look even better when the Choisya is in full flower :o)
