Hello Constance, When it comes to pruning, I always use the old farmer's method: from Spring thru Fall only prune in months that have a 'R' in their name. For example, you can prune in April but not in May. April has a R in it but May does not. I like this method because it's easy to remember.

Prune in late winter or very early spring before it begins to leaf out
