Study Your Shrubs Before Pruning
A horticulturist from State College advises studying each shrub's growth and blooming habit before pruning. He warns against overcutting, recommends thinning old canes and new growth to preserve natural habit, and notes lilac, Forsythia, and Spiraea bloom on prior growth, so pruning can remove buds or create a stubby look. He also cautions about dead or diseased canes and persistent insect damage, stressing annual pruning with selective removal.
