Pruning 101
Written by Staff on July 21, 2009 – 1:54 am -
Pruning is both a skill and an art. The skill is in making proper cuts that will heal well. The art is in making cuts in the right places so that the plant will develop its potential beauty or produce an optimum crop. No matter how much or how little pruning you do on an established plant, the objective is to modify the plant’s growth. The modification can be done to maintain plant health by removing dead, diseased or injured wood, to control or direct growth and to increase quality or yield of flowers or fruit.
