Post #4837559

Three years ago when the landscaper put in two of these plants, he said to cut them back in a couple of years. So, how does one do this? They've gotten twice as tall as when first planted and their trunks, once as slender as a finger, are now as thick as a wrist. I just can't see where one starts lopping off. Can anyone advise?
