Beginning Of -The -Season Pruning Projects

With some warmer weather in March, gardening activities are usually done at this time. Normally this is the month to prune our woody plants. This spring, most of us who where affected with the severe ice storms in December are facing an overwhelming degree of tasks to do aside from the normal beginning season pruning projects. All fractured and broken branches need to be cut away. Butterfly bushes, late summer blooming plants and most shrub roses and some climbers should be pruned back severely so as to shape them. Spring flowering plants are normally pruned immediately after blooming.
