  • Basic Advice On Cleaning Your Garden
    Pruning the roots: Pruning shrub and tree roots can be as easy as 1,2,3. There are three basic ways to go about it. The first way is by making the shrub or tree suitable for transplanting purposes. If not prepared adequately in advance it can result in shock to the shrub or tree. You can use a spade whhich has a sharpened edge to make a straight cut all across the perimeter of the shrub or the tree. The cut needs to be approximately 16 or even 18 inches away from the central stalk portion. This applies in the case of a small plant. For larger sized plants the cut would need to be further away. The second stage is all about allowing the plant to develop brand new roots and regain all its lost energy and vitality. For about a month or so, you will need to thoroughly put water and fertilize the plant adequately. If you intend on shifting the plant make sure to perform this pruning method at least 6 weeks in advance. After root pruning it is generally adviseable to provide a resting period of 1 year for the plant.
