Hi,

I have a planting of five burning bush plants that have grown large and
into
each other. Can I prune them back a third at this time of year and
I'm in Maryland.

I'm no expert but I live in northern DE and see buds on mine. I would not
prune this severely at this time myself.
I have done this much pruning in the dead of winter and it did not harm
them.
