George had brought with him various bits of greenery, which he used to demonstrate how to prune and also how to take cuttings for propagating. He also gave everyone an information sheet with very precise instructions on how to take softwood, hardwood and semi-ripe cuttings. Even some of our most experienced members said how useful it had been, reminding them of all sorts of things they had forgotten!
George Lockwood talked to us today about when and how to prune our garden shrubs and trees and about taking cuttings. He gave us a lot of detailed information about the right time and the correct method for pruning the different shrubs and trees, and warned us against the 'cowboy' gardeners who come round knocking on the door to tell us our trees need pruning!
