I have 2 of these shrubs in my yard. I thought about making a bonsai out of them. Mine grow to about 15 ' tall and are very leggy. I have already hard pruned them twice this summer and in Nov, I will cut back to about a foot. They are really a nice bush, huge flowers and attracts humming birds galore.

Do keep us informed and if you do well with it, I'll give it a try.

Peace
bob
