No it's not some pornographic come on (I promise mods) ....
My little hedge is growing rapidly and I am constantly seeing new growth on it. Very exciting.
Question is ... at what stage do I start shaping it?
I was told by somebody a long time ago (when I had no interest in gardens) that you should start trimming your hedge straight away and then it is just a matter of maintaining it. Whereas if you leave it until it gets quite big and bushy, you have the issue of perhaps 'over' trimming.
But my thought process now is that it's too little to be giving it a trim (a bit like I felt when we did Sarah's first hair cut!!)...
Any green thumbs out there that can give me a word of advice????
Thanks guys & gals
