Photonia Red Robin

It needs a good prune but is it too late. I've googled but some say spring others say up until mid August. I would have done it earlier but my swarm of baby sparrows were using it to hide in.

Nettles And Butterflies...

I think I read somewhere that nettles in a garden would attract butterflies. I've allowed a healthy patch to grow but so far no more butterflies than usual. Could they be the wrong kind of nettles?
