I have one of these bushes and you just revealed a tip about trimming that I needed to hear! I was doing it wrong and fighting the thing as you put it. Will start this winter to just take out some of the lower shoots and let it fill in on top. I think thats what I heard you say. Love this bush though and I usually have a big vase full on my deck so we can watch the robins demolish the berries!
Loved this video, thank you. I'm your neighbor to the north, in Vancouver Canada, so your videos are totally relevant for our landscapes here too. I only started noticing this amazing purple-berried 🟣 tree this year and kept forgetting to look it up. So glad I found your video. You're right, when I saw the berries for the first time I couldn't believe they were real. The color is incredible, and they're so shiny & shimmery. Take care!
