Pruning Fruit Trees, Shrubs and Vines

A third of blueberry canes 
should be pruned each year
to encourage new growth. 

It’s the season for pruning fruit trees and vines.  A good time to prune most fruits is between now and the end of February, when trees, shrubs, and vines are completely dormant.  Don’t miss the timely on-site workshop in the Leon County UF/IFAS Orchard on Paul Russell Road in Tallahassee.
