Within a few months, it will again be a hedge. My wife loves the white flowers but it's crowding the driveway so I have to lop off a foot or more to trim it back on the sides. Just trim off branches that encroach the driveway. On the top, I just want it to look neat'ish. Looks fine to me. If you get a "loner" branch trying to grab too much attention, use this. http://www.amazon.com/Fiskars-9240-T...pr_product_top That "wild" look suits me, and you don't have much choice with oleander anyway. |
