August ideal for removal of watersprouts from large limbs
Weekend Gardener notes August as prime for removing watersprouts that sprout from hidden buds after hurricane pruning. Removal near the limb prevents recurrence, with methods including close cuts, quick pulls, or leaving a sprout to form a new branch. Chemicals and fuel oil may aid control. Next week details and Lawn and Garden Day at the university are announced.
