PRUNING OF FLOWERING SHRUBS 
When old bushes are to be cut down to make a new, young 
growth, this kind of pruning is done in very early spring 
before the shrubs get green. All other pruning, to keep 
shrubs in certain shapes, and which is applied to the 
branches only, 
should always 
take place dur¬ 
ing the growing 
season and very 
shortly after / 
such shrubs j \ j\ 
have bloomed. V. f 
After pruning f \/ 
(during dry per- 1 „ V" i 
iods) give the j 
pruned shrubs a f r ' N 
good soaking of 1 
water. \ , A
