Hi Beano,
I just picked out three that I had and arranged them as best i could then some selective pruning. Dwarf honeysuckle are perfect for mini hedges. If you think yours will need a little wire to set it down the right path then go for it. Whatever works ;)

Oh and glad you like it :wave:

It's too bad your in such a hurry cause the stories I could tell you, Bushels and baskets of stories, hole crates full of stories. But if you can spare a moment I will tell you one story.

LOL! I've never had murraya before, actually its a dwarf murraya, apparently they are bit weedlike, so hopefully it'll survive me just looking at it. I went for a bit more of a hardcore trim today, certainly it doesn't have any shape yet, just trying to keep the branching short so it doesn't go too tall and patchy underneath. Its got flower buds on it at the moment, so I've let them stay for now, as soon as they are done, they're getting chopped.
