Hi Tom, welcome to GTags. This looks like Diabolo Ninebark but I could be wrong 🤔

Hey @pelly, thank you. Yes after looking it up it’s definitely a Ninebark, with white flowers. It’s getting a bit out of hand, so I need to cut it back, wait until it’s finished flowering?

You're welcome. I would imagine so but if you Google the RHS site you should be able to find the information you need. I know nothing about them I'm afraid 👍

Hi Tom. Welcome to this great gardening community 👋👋 You should always leave pruning until after a shrub has flowered. Don’t be afraid to cut yours back to the shape you want. It will reward you next year! I hope you enjoy using this brilliant app 😀
