This is a collage - two pics of the same bush. It is one of those yellow/greens that looks like it can't make up its mind between being a shrub and a tree. It got a little ice damage, wnich we cut out. We have 5 of them, all blocking the view of the front door from the street, which would be okay, except they give someone a place to hide, if they were of a mind to.,

We can't decide how to prune them, if at all/ All advice appreciated.
