Can you hard prune a Fatsia Japonica? It's really out of shape with foliage mainly on the top part with nothing down below. I removed a Phormium from in front of it a while back blocking out light, but now it's in full view and not looking pretty.
Thanks

Fatsia Japonica and Trachycarpus Fortunei
Hello, new here
Any suggestions for an exotic look in the garden? Been looking at gardening books.
I like Fatsia Japonica and Trachycarpus Fortunei (Chusan)
Are they easy and hardy?

Fatsia - Spider's Web
Saw a batch of incredible Spider's web today, but didn't have enough cash for one.
These ones had some much white in their varigation they looked amazing.
Definately going back ASAP to get one, but I was just wondering if it should be handled any differently from a regular fatsia...?

fatsia or fatshedera?
I got given a fatsia today or at least i think that its a fatsia. I thought that it could be a fatshedera but the leaves seem too big. It is variegated with the dark green on the edges and fading to yellowish in the centre. Sorry that i dont have a picture at the moment. Anyone got any ideas?

What's wrong with my fatsia?
It has started producing non serrated leaves for some reason. There are a few manky ones which need pulling off but these are not unhealthy, just not serrated
Here is a pic of the whole plant.
And one of a leaf.
Any ideas???
