I have a gorgeous and obscenely healthy ceanothus of the low growing

notions of world domination, and is in the process of crawling over

any advice?

Salut Cath ) Like Mary, I'd like to know how big it is. I had made a
standard, about 2m high and I had never pruned it. However, I have one
against the wall, and I prune it after flowering to train it
horizontally. They don't like severe pruning but I'd say after
flowering is usually the best time.
