How late can I leave pruning as I have birds nesting in the middle of the bush. Its been fantastic this year covered in flower, reaching over 6 feet so will need a haircut!

    Just wait till they’ve fledged and do it then .

    The best way to prune it, is to take about 1/3rd. of the shoots down to ground level, so you totally renew the plant over 3 years.
