Sustainable Pruning With Respect for Plants and Animals

Tinka Chabot

Everything about the pruning of trees, bushes or shrubs, variegated plants, hedges, climbing plants and fixed plants

You learn how to prune, leaving alone flowers for pollinators and fruits for birds

With clear information and illustrated descriptions, many tips, and good examples from experience

A pruning book? Most definitely! But somewhat different from every other pruning book. Pruning might be the most fun job in your garden. Certainly when you see how much better your pruned plants are doing. In this book, you don’t need to know what your plants are called, but instead you learn to look for how the plants work. This pruning book makes you understand when, why and how you need to prune. The starting point is the unique natural shape of a plant: how they grow and, just as important, how they influence each other’s growth.

Due to ignorance and fear to prune much goes wrong when pruning. That has to change! In this book Tinka Chabot illustrates in an insightful manner how to keep your plants healthy and pretty.
