Thank you for sending us your gardening question.

Holly will accept severe pruning and it will grow back. It is best to do renewal pruning in late winter. Afterwards, you can keep it in check with regular pruning. Or, remove the trees and replace them with a plant that will mature at the height you want; thereby reducing pruning chores.
