How to Prune Plants
Effective pruning depends on three things. Timing. Technique. And sharp tools for a crisp, clean cut that seals more quickly than a ragged cut.
Use hand pruners for stems less than ¼-inch thick, loppers for stems up to ½-inch thick, and a Japanese pruning saw or a bow saw for woody stems thicker than that. Early spring is a good time to prune many plants because they are dormant and won’t lose energy-producing foliage.
