Thanks for all of the replies. Now to talk my wife into drastic
pruning.

I see you asked about this twelve months ago
http://tinyurl.com/q5a6lhc after it got badly frost- and wind-burnt. I
see no point in repeating whatever you did then, because it obviously
didn't work. Do something different this time!
I'm sure you're right. We did cut out the wind and frost burnt material
and it rewarded us by growing green leaf rather like green was the in
fashion colour. Maybe it's due for replacement rather than nurturing
and caring. Show it who's boss!
