Ceanothus

Got so fed up with it sprawling everywhere, decided to standardise it....It's more tree like now, and will fill out.. and look better...

Looks great Sue! :)

You have to show them who's boss sometimes!

Thanks all...It's true Frybo...can't stand plants and shrubs flopping about all over, looks too untidy...
I like it now, and it will get taller, and make a nice tree...:o)))

I have done the same with most my shrubs
they look even better now :)))

Great minds think alike Michaella :o)) .....I don't know why I didn't do it sooner....

Think it looks good....

On our patio side yard I let everything get sprawly, and only clip back the limbs that interfere. Mostly because I would like to NOT see the neighbor's! The hubs would prefer to trim back everything. It is the only place in the garden where I HAVE to have it MY WAY.

The patio door faces their back door. No need for them to be able to peep into the TV room where I tend to hang in the evening. *-))

Thanks Clarice... not bad at all...

Hi Rusty...I'm not overlooked there, tho there is a new build going up..but the garage will be facing our Fence line, so no worries...the rest of that fence line is mixed planting of Shrubs, covering the fence...but that one was getting in the way of other plants too...
