Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Proper pruning is essential to the health and beauty of every landscape. Pruning keeps the garden in order so that each plant can be appreciated for its singular beauty while adding to the overall landscape picture. In order to accomplish this task and make it more a pleasure than a job, one needs to have the proper tools. Tools are an extension of the user and as such should be as much about the pride of ownership as it is about comfort and purpose. The proper tools and the care of these tools will lead to the rewards that come with nurturing and caring for living things as well as a chance to express the inner creativity that exists in all of us. Care and creation, two essential elements in life that the art of pruning will bring to those who have the patience to work the process.

Download or read book Guide To Pruning For Beginners written by Melissa Hammock and published by . This book was released on 2020-07-31 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Proper pruning enhances the beauty of almost any landscape tree and shrub, while improper pruning can ruin or greatly reduce its landscape potential. In most cases, it is better not to prune than to do it incorrectly. In nature, plants go years with little or no pruning, but man can ruin what nature has created. By using improper pruning methods healthy plants are often weakened or deformed. In nature, every plant eventually is pruned in some manner. It may be a simple matter of low branches being shaded by higher ones resulting in the formation of a collar around the base of the branch restricting the flow of moisture and nutrients. Eventually the leaves wither and die and the branch then drops off in a high wind or storm. Often, tender new branches of small plants are broken off by wild animals in their quest for food. In the long run, a plant growing naturally assumes the shape that allows it to make the best use of light in a given location and climate. All one needs to do to appreciate a plant's ability to adapt itself to a location is to walk into a wilderness and see the beauty of natural growing plants. Pruning, like any other skill, requires knowing what you are doing to achieve success. The old idea that anyone with a chain saw or a pruning saw can be a landscape pruner is far from the truth. More trees are killed or ruined each year from improper pruning than by pests. Remember that pruning is the removal or reduction of certain plant parts that are not required, that are no longer effective, or that are of no use to the plant. It is done to supply additional energy for the development of flowers, fruits, and limbs that remain on the plant. Pruning, which has several definitions, essentially involves removing plant parts to improve the health, landscape effect, or value of the plant. Once the objectives are determined and a few basic principles understood, pruning primarily is a matter of common sense. The necessity for pruning can be reduced or eliminated by selecting the proper plant for the location. Plants that might grow too large for the site, are not entirely hardy, or become unsightly with age should be used wisely and kept to a minimum in the landscape plan. Advances in plant breeding and selection in the nursery industry provide a wide assortment of plants requiring little or no pruning. However, even the most suitable landscape plants often require some pruning. The guidelines presented in this publication should be helpful when pruning any plant.

Book excerpt: THE OBJECTIVE OF PRUNING is to produce strong, healthy attractive plants. By understanding how, when and why to prune, and by following a few simple principles, this objective can be achieved. Reasons for Pruning The main reasons for pruning ornamental and shade trees include safety, health, and aesthetics. In addition, pruning can be used to stimulate fruit production and increase the value of timber. Pruning for safety involves removing branches that could fall and cause injury or property damage, trimming branches that grow into utility lines. Safety pruning can be largely avoided by carefully choosing species that will not grow beyond the space available to them, and have strength and form characteristics that are suited to the site...
