Ready to rescue your shrubs and small trees from being butchered into meatballs, squares, flattops and lollipops?  Or just need to do some size reduction and taming on a specimen that has outgrown its allotted space?  Perhaps you are new to gardening and just want to learn how to do things the right way.  Pruning woodies can be intimidating to many, especially when you care about the health, vigor and aesthetics of your ornamental shrubs and trees.  Come join us for a basic tutorial of pruning fundamentals, including tips for rejuvenating and restoring poor mistreated plants.  With a little bit of knowledge and understanding about the growth and bloom cycles of the plants you wish to prune, as well as their inherent habit/shape if left unpruned, you can learn to honor the integrity of what you’ve got in your garden and reduce the work needed to maintain it.
