Advice on growing a Cornus florida 'urbiniana'
I was lucky enough to be given a Cornus florida 'urbiniana' for my birthday but I'm a bit daunted by how big it'll grow (up to 5m x 4m / 16' x 13') in my relatively small garden.
I have an east facing bed (with garage to the west of it) around 1.8m/6' deep. It has path around 2 sides to get to my compost bins/water butt. Can I prune it to keep it roughly within the border and stop it from growing to it's full size? (I'm more concerned by the width than the height!)
