This looks pretty ... do you trim it short every autumn to keep the tidy shape ?

I was watching a program last night about coral, how they drill a piece of the coral out and use to fore tell the monsoons, in the Indian ocean one they drilled it from was over 300 years old. When they extract a core of it, it shows white lines on the piece and those are the monsoons, so for the past 300 years they can tell by the rings like as on a tree, when the monsoons were. So now they can help the people on the islands as so to prepare for the monsoons.
