The fall is a great time to prune many native plants but if you missed that opportunity, you can still get your flora ready for spring and summer. Pruning is the garden task that requires the most skill, timing and your time in the garden. Proper pruning affects the health and vigor of plants and can take a garden from “good” to “great.” Learn when and how to prune your perennials and see examples of good and bad pruning done right before your eyes.
