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.

If our relatively late flowering E Crimson Spire (hedging) and Gold
Ellen are anything to go by it will produce some flowers later in the
year if trimmed now but it is better to prune them as soon as flowering
has finished.
