Relax.
This is a G rated post.
I’m speaking of a yew bush in front of our home office window.
It’s large, unruly and was in need of a pruning. Problem was, I couldn’t reach most of it from outside so……
I hung out the window and did a little hedge trimming from the inside.
This results in an utter mess and small green needles everywhere.
But what’s a girl to do when her bush needs trimming?
There.
That’s better.
Well then… you have a “master” carpenter at home – have him move the window.
Easy Peasy

My “master” carpenter is not allowed to do anything IN the house.

He can’t move the window from outside? You will just have to do the interior trim work.

I love it. I admire your ability to trim the yew from within the window view without hurting you. Woo-hoo!

Hewing the Yew … I dunno … that hedger has an awful lot of teeth on it. I would go with a smaller tool when bush trimming. But then, what would I know about that? I use a Bush-Hog® to hew my yews …

If mine gets any more unruly, I may have to borrow that.

My condolences. I have two ugly spruce between my east windows and I loathe them. I cut them back so far every year. I cannot believe how big and fast they grow!

And the plants we want rapid growth? Never.
I think it’s a green conspiracy.

We need a higher up shot of that window so we can see if the bush matches the drapes…

I find your freshly-sculpted bush to be quite crisp and satisfying. Thank you for sharing it.
