I've just seen a photo elsewhere Polly, all the shrubs cut like bits of hedge, it looked awful. Plants need to be allowed to grow and flourish Think shape and style, not just flowers.
@Nutcutlet - yes, scary wasn't it! Well since that picture I've been trying to identify what to keep and what needs to go. The tree at the top has been thinned out, the smoke bush pruned right back properly to try and get a good shape and I'm working my way around the others as best I can with limited time! I'll post some progress pics at some point.
