If you miss this time-sensitive window, you risk losing blooms or exposing your plants to winter damage.

We cover everything from herbaceous perennials to woody shrubs, climbers, and fruit trees. Learn the "pull and twist" technique for Alstroemeria, how to prune Lavender for a perfect tidy dome, and the summer pruning secrets for Wisteria.
