Hi I moved into a new house last October and there didn't seem to be much plant life in the garden. It's now July and I'm fighting with a thorny blackberry bush to get out of my back door. This thing is monstrous at nearing 10ft tall and 4ft across. It's producing hundreds if not thousands of black berries but I just can't fight through it any longer let alone the hundreds of bees which come with it. What is the best way to trim it down a bit without causing any harm please?
