Check out the pictures of our most recent training day at Blackjack Horticulture.  Doing things the right way is something we pride ourselves on at Blackjack.  This was a refresher course in proper pruning for a few of our maintenance staff.  Pruning plants the right way helps to ensure proper growth, the right amount of sunlight and moisture to the entire plant, and the desired appearance.  Selectively pruning to keep the natural shape of the plant is the goal.
