Hi Susie, When it comes to pruning, I follow the old farmer's method. From Spring thru Fall, only prune during months that have an "R" in their names. For example, I prune in April but not in May. May does not have an "R". I like this method because it's easy to remember. I hope this little tidbit of info helps you. Good luck.
