That 5" layer of leaves is just what you get on a plant left unpruned fo a
long time. Choisya, as with many shrubs, positevely benefits from an ongoing
3 year cyvle of pruning. Ideally, you do it after flowering rather than
before but in term of end effect there is no difference.

You can also clip them with shears like you would a hedge once they're
at about the size you want. It tends to thicken them up and make them
far more dense.
