An experienced gardener knows that the garden needs care at any time of the year, including winter.
Pruning allows you to direct the resources that the plant receives in the right direction.
Therefore, the removal of excess branches is carried out for many trees that will delight with fruits in the summer and autumn.
Let's pay attention to the recommendations of the expert of the online publication "Belnovosti" and scientist-agronomist Anastasia Kovrizhnykh regarding winter pruning.
It is better to do this from the second half of January to March - you need to have time to complete this task before the sap starts to move.
