Love those Christmas Cacti? Want to keep them around for a long time? Here’s how.

There is a mix of perennials and shrubs that should not be pruned before winter. Keep in mind that any pruning on a plant encourages growth. Pruning stimulates a growth hormone called an auxin. If you prune the top of a rose cane, it will stimulate growth below the pruned section. Pruning in late fall or winter is risky. The environmental temperatures will not support growth.

Your community group can request a guest speaker on a wide range of topics.
