Yes, Once the shrubs reach the desired height you trim them to maintain there shape and size. Remember that you are dealing with a slow growing shrub and if you get to aggresive with the trimming it will take some time for the shrub to heal if it can at all. I would trim them twice per year spring and fall and remove no more than 1"- 2" at a time.
