EARLY SPRING IN THE GARDEN. 
Before trees and shrubs begin.to grow pruning and trimming should be finished. 
This 
is the best time to trim hedges and other formal shaped trees and shrubs to perfect lines. 
In summer severe cutting back may make them look bare. 
Fruit trees, small fruits, 
late flowering shrubs as Hydrangeas, etc., are best prun ed soon. 
Pruning or trimming with us does not mean trimming every shrub to a round top but 
pruning for health and vigor allowing natural grace. 
Let shrubs intended to be formal in shape be kept perfect in outline as if cutin marble.
