It is the one operation that' v is most likely to ,be neglected, I overdone, or pporly Aone. Tq use the old adage '"prune when the knife is sharp” certainly has limitations as we will see. . First I think we should remem ber that every plant has character. • represented by growth habit, leaf, stem, bark and flower or fruit' color. We should also remember tha. pruhiiig is. a dwarfing pro “ cess because whenever leaves are' removed from a plant the power’ of the plant to manufacture food is reduced. ; ♦ ... * A/, understanding'of the fruit or flower bearing habits of the plant, is essential before one can prune Grape's, are borne ,on "shoots of the' current season’s growth which -come from buds on canes one-year old.- Reaches are, born oii wood one-year old. apples on spurs formed on'' wood two years old and older; -and holly f (BurforcH) berries' are borne- on , wood one year old,/ as was the case /with, peaches.
