PRUNE YOUR PLANTS If your garden is filled with everything from trees to shrubs to flowers, you will have your work cut out for you this weekend. Many varieties are ready for a late-winter
prune ahead of the growing season, so be sure to check for damage and overgrowth throughout your garden. Spring-flowering plants will struggle to bloom if they are left un-pruned, but it’s
crucial to get it done before the buds begin to show. Evergreen shrubs, climbing and bush roses, apple and pear trees are all ready for pruning right now - so brush off your secateurs and
get pruning.
