Modern Shrubs are a large assortment of mostly more modern hybrids of very mixed ancestry. All highly useful in their own individual ways. For the most part they were developed in the 20th century and do not fall into other groupings.

Prune repeat flowerers by one third once established, once flowerers can be left unpruned except to shape and remove any dead or diseased wood.
