So, my Steeds Japanese holly doesn't look as bushy as I would like it to be. It is doing fine at the bottom, but less so at the top. When should I prune this to get it to be bushy? Right now it has not put out any new growth yet. Last year I snipped a few longer branches that were sticking out after the flush of new growth.

I see a lot of these in the neighborhood that are totally out of control and you can see right through them...
