Pruning keeps the plant Healthy
I wrote a post on how to get things Undone. Matt just undid something with WordPress and I like the metaphor that he used relating to pruning:
“Pruning is an important and necessary step in growing roses. Pruning keeps the plant healthy. It promotes new growth, removes dead, broken or diseased canes and trains roses to a desired shape. Pruning encourages flowering, either more blooms or larger blooms, and is essential to keep modern rose varieties blooming repeatedly all summer long.”
I also thought the comments were pretty interesting, as anything that you do or undo will have mixed reactions. Keep pruning Matt and I look forward to the next blooms!
