Living Room...almost finished.

The latest in our house remodel. Living room is almost finished...just a few baseboards to install. We moved walls, retextured, painted (19' ceilings and walls), new flooring, ...»
furnishings, rugs, etc., all for under $4000, including the furniture, accomplished by bargain shopping, garage sales, estate sales, auctions, craig's list, and doing the work ourselves.

    Nandina is a low maintenance shrub, requiring pruning only once a year to control it's height ...»
    and keep it from looking leggy. This pruning needs to be done in the winter so not to cut off next year berries.

    First, prune to the ground about a quarter of the stems randomly throughout the plant. Then prune about a quarter of the remaining stems at one-third the height of the plant. Next, prune about one quarter of the stems two-third of the height of the plant.

    Leave the final quarter of the stems uncut. By following this procedure, you will be rewarded with a lush, show-stopping plant that will be a focal point of your landscape.
