I quite liked the lok of this at first, but it's now taking over my "spherical" bush. I wonder if it's just another ivy taking over ?
If the answer's yes I'm readybwith my secateurs.

Looks like Euonymus fortunei 'Silver Queen', an attractive shrub, easy to prune to shape. What is your 'spherical bush'?

Yes its a silver variegated Euonymus. They will stand hard pruning so clip it to the shape you want.

Sorry Shirley, being a beginner ( still ! ) it was the best way I could describe it. I'll ask another question and enclose a photo, then you can tell me how to describe it if I ever have a similar question.
Meanwhile, Thanks for the replies guys, maybe I'll leave it.
(,see my next question )

Excellent description, now that I've seen the shrub in question.

Thanks Shirl, you've made my day.

That's good Hank ... well done on cutting the 'invading plants' from your shrub!

It looks like my euonymous bush so that's my guess, or a holly bush.
