Italian Prune

I receive this plant as a Christmas gift. The description of the Prune is fantastic. I hope the fruit will also be.

Until last week, I thought this prune tree was dead. Then I start to see signs that the leaves were coming. What a relief!

I can't wait to try the prunes one day. May be my italian friend Christine can tell us more about it?

Thanks for visiting.

Pruning Time

It is this time of the year... Pruning at its best.

The leaves are gone... Nothing is in the way for you to analyse what should stay and what should go.

Many summer and fall flowering trees, shrubs and some perennials can be pruned now. However, do not prune plants that flower on old wood.  As a general rule, plants that flower in old wood are best pruned after they are done flowering (most hydrangeas are in this category).

 I  prune my peach tree a little. It still need a little bit more cleaning up.

The apple is too young to prune.

I need to clean up the blueberries.

Thanks for dropping by,
