That's it, really - or should I wait a bit longer? What's the best
time?

I would give them a Mini prune, but generally its best done in March.
Well,
thats what I've always been led to believe, and mine are very healthy for
it.

Hmmmm I've always hard pruned as soon as flowers are going
crispy,(done several this year already).
Had no problems so far.


I'm tempted to prune them now - so I can get into my front door It was a
bad idea to plant two in pots beside my front door, they've obviously
escaped with their roots in real soil now. Aaargh.
