Would it be OK to cut back Lonicera nitida 'Baggesen's Gold' now. I have a small one about a foot high and growing fast. I thought if i cut it back a bit it would spread out?
I did a search and it seems it can be cut back now. Some said September. But I would like to hear views of more experienced people here. Don't want to ruin it |

Yes. Lonicera nitida is often used as hedging and topiary. The plant is still quite small, so just give it a gentle prune of the new growth. |
