Help with Bushes- What are these?

14 years ago

Hello:

i have some bushes in front of my house that provide a nice shade, but i think they need trimmed. i don't want to kill them and am not sure how to make them grow to be more full. Can anyone help me identify them, or point me in the right direction on how to care for them properly?

thank you in advance.
