Pruning Is All About Timing

TO PRUNE OR NOT TO PRUNE?  –  THAT'S A GOOD QUESTION!
Before you start to prune be sure to have a clear purpose in mind for wanting to prune a particular plant. The three most obvious reasons to want to prune a shrub or tree are: controlling the size of the plant, maintaining the plants' shape, or improving the plants' appearance.

Garden Nuggets

- Recent mild temperatures have encouraged new growth of many spring bulbs, with early types of snowdrops already flowering. Cold temperatures are inevitable over the next two months, but there should be no damage to daffodils or other flowers or emerging foliage, and no protection is needed.
 
- Cold damage is unlikely for winter flowering shrubs such as witch hazels, or for winter flowering hellebores.
 
- Damage to broad leafed evergreens such as hollies and laurels from cold temperatures can often not be assessed until warmer weather. Damp soils are advantageous to plants, but some evergreens such as nandinas are likely to show signs of winter damage if temperatures drop below ten degrees. Browned leaves are rarely a problem.
 
- Accumulations of snow or ice can be removed by gently nudging branches of trees and shrubs with a rake or broom. Avoid sharp blows that might cause injury. Only branches that are leaning under the weight of ice or snow should be cleaned, and if snow is expected to melt quickly there is no need to take any action.

- Weathered and faded foliage of perennials should be removed prior to new spring growth. With some perennials the faded leaves pull easily by hand, but others require pruners or scissors so that roots are not disturbed.

- While foliage of hellebores is evergreen, leaves will often turn brown. Care should be taken when pruning old leaves not to cut flower buds.

Inspirations on a winter afternoon
After viewing a presentation on public gardens scattered across this country, I was reminded to revisit my photos of gardens in the Pacific Northwest in June 2018 and 2019 that most inspire me. Photos of Bloedel Reserve, Heronswood (both in Washington), the Portland Japanese Garden, and the conifer display at Iseli Nursery (in Oregon) are followed by photos of natural wonders I viewed on several hikes through the Olympic Mountains on Washington's coast. I include photos of the natural landscape that I use to help guide locations when I plant in my garden.
