Greetings fellow garden enthusaists!

Advice please................

I have a large Escallonia bush in need of a trim - if I cut it back
now, will it flower this summer?

Thanks for any help with this.

We used to have hedges of this and it was cut hard twice a year and still
flowered, first cut in spring, second after flowering, if in doubt wait
until its flowered.
