    I have a pretty little conica which was being overshadowed by a pretty little something that grows a bit crazy. Anyway I've cut the pretty something back a bit but now wonder whether it's too late for the conica - for half of it anyway.

    Will it green again or should I let the pretty something grow over again?

    I cut the other thing 2 weeks ago so long before I got hold of the hebe

    Sadly, those branches are dead Laura and most members of the conifer family will not recover from die back. As you say you can either let the other plant grow back to hide it or remove it completely.

    Thanks Sheal. It's a shame but I'll let the plant next to it take over that side again. It's still pretty if you don't look at the side lol
