    I've just reduced mine from about 10 foot wide by 6 foot high to a stump as close to the ground as I could saw.

    I'm expecting it to grow back Tetley. I'm hoping for some rain as I'm not into carrying buckets of water. It was collapsing outwards and bits were rotting and only a tree paeony, a viburnum and a sarcococca prevented it lying down completely
