PapaLarry...There was a thread on this and I think it was called Crepe Murder...about trimming them back. Half did, half did not think it was the thing to do. We did, the guy next door did not. We are waiting to see when they bloom who wins. I think it may be too late now to trim them and you could cut off where they will blossom.
When it's bloomin' time I will report on ours.
