How do I control shrubs/ornamental plants from taking over?

​Have you ever had a shrub that suddenly seems like it has taken over your yard? This happens far too often. Sometimes shrubs grow in directions that you never intended, but good news…there is a way to control this! It will also save you time from having to trim back your shrubs all of the time!
 
Many popular shrubs require a lot of attention from homeowners and landscapers. In order to keep their shape, pruning and shearing are usually required. This can be very time consuming to keep your shrubs looking perfect! This is where plant growth regulators come into play. 
 
Plant growth regulators act like a hormone and modify or control one or more physiological changes within a plant. Cutless is our favorite kind of plant growth regulator because it literally helps you cut less! It is root-absorbed. It can be used for turf grass to reduce the need for mowing and also suppresses annual bluegrass. Cutless has also been shown to be effective in controlling growth of ornamental plants and helps control random shoots.
