You should be ok. If you had this shrub/bush near your place, it may be
ruined. Rumor has it, this shrub did a lot of damage in the USA.

They will hold moisture , the house walls wont dry quickly and yes you
will have problems. Cut it back several feet, besides it looks butt
ugly.

Thanks to all. There is no trough. The thing on the right is the back
upright of a rustic wooden seat. The shrubs go directly into the ground.

If there isn't sufficient space to mow behind foliage, it's too close
to the structure.

Plants attract bugs, etc.

So how do people manage to grow roses etc actually climbing up their
house walls
with no detriment to the structure?

Lots of unfamiliar names posting to this thread - where has it been
crossposted
to, apart from urg?
