Home Gardener's Pruning: Caring for Shrubs, Trees, Climbers, Hedges, Conifers, Roses and Fruit Trees

In order to be a successful gardener you have to know how to prune--whether to improve growth, increase fruiting qualities or to enable the plant to grow in space-restricted areas or cold environments. This practical book provides advice on pruning garden plants, from infancy to maturity. Included is detailed advice on renovating neglected plants, from shrubs and climbers to fruit trees and bushes. There is also a fun element, with instructions for creating topiary in the garden.
