Tiny Pruning Error, Huge ConsequencesI walk past this poor tree several times a year and it always makes me sad. You see the small stub of a branch that was left at some point in years past.

On a closing noteComing here in a week or two, at the request of several: photos showing measurements of the armadillo trap I featured last week, for those who want to construct one. Until next week, that's another edition of our little baby. We hope you agree that shes pretty, and if so, all I ask is that you tell all your gardening buds. Other
places we can meet: Until next week, thanks for reading, and Happy Gardening! |
