Q: Which plants should I prune in the summer?
A: Springtime garden blooms gave us a great show this year. If gently pruned now, many of these plants will continue to bloom through the summer.
Trimming plants that bloomed in the spring encourages new growth and blooms, and most are tolerant of summer pruning. Be sure to prune azaleas right away, as they are about to start producing buds for next spring.
