@Icegoddess Well done! I give you alot of credit because it takes a lot of patience to shape a shrub the way you did it. I have a multiple loly topiary...a cone shape that I turned into a round ball shape & 2 spirals in front of columns to the entry of my porch. I also prune the same way except for the spiral which I use a scissors lol! Here, in Fl. pruning is done far too often. I wish I could post pics but I don't know how except for FB. I am an avid gardener & enjoy it but do in early in the morning because the heat here is unbearable. You have a beautiful home! PS Its 7am & I am on my way out I need to plant some "Blue My Mind Evolulus" in a slope area & deadhead some perennial flowers.

@Lilysmom1 wrote:@Icegoddess , well done! Anyone who has pruned knows what a big job this is and one where you have to step back often and take a look as to shaping.
I finally got a battery operated hedge trimmer...a real good one but I know you did this by hand. How often do you do it? A big big job. Congrats. Smart to get it done before the shot. S
PS, what is the shrub?
@Lilysmom1 these are Hollies. I only do them once a year. It's just too much for me to do it more often than that. Plus, as the plantings in front get larger, I don't have anything large enough to cover them to keep me from steppiing on them.

@Icegoddess , they must be beautiful when they berry up. Year round colour! Well done. The pheasants and robins get my berries. S
