The dormant period in Winter is an important time to perform specific work on plants whose structure is visible with no leaves. We will visit a number of shrubs and ornamental trees that are best pruned and accessed in Winter. Since plants do not respond to pruning at this time, we can use this window to remove water sprouts and root suckers and work on plants with specific aesthetic needs. The workshop will cover specific pruning techniques, explaining how and why cuts are being made.Instructor: Reed Pugh
