Joe Nichols comments, “Timing is everything with pruning. Both time of year and bloom time of the plant are important considerations for deciding when and how to shape your plants. The class will cover pruning requirements for various trees and bushes common in Tennessee landscapes. A team of certified Master Gardeners will demonstrate pruning techniques, the do's and don'ts of pruning, as well as how to assess freeze and storm damage. We will also show the different tools you'll need for your pruning projects. The class will start with an indoor presentation and then continue outside for some practical experience.”
