Event Description:

Learn the basics of pruning, beginning with appropriate tool use and care, making the correct cuts, and timing for shrubs and climbers in your garden. This is a talk and demonstration, so make sure that you arrive dressed for some outdoor teaching! The workshop is a combination of theory and demonstration. We begin under cover with the main theory and discuss all aspects of pruning and what tools to use. This is in the form of a Powerpoint presentation with additional plant material. Later in the day we will look at shrubs, trees and perennials in a garden situation and consider how they should be pruned.

Arrive at 10.15am for 10.30am start, finish at 3.00pm. A light lunch is included with complimentary refreshments. Please email or call the shop if you have any dietary requirements.

As this workshop is a combination of theory and demonstration, come prepared for outdoor teaching with appropriate clothing. Please bring secateurs.
