Pruning Simplified: A Complete Guide to Pruning Trees, Shrubs, Bushes, Hedges, Vines, Flowers, Garden Plants, Houseplants and Bonsai

by Lewis Hill

The craft of pruning is simple, but deceptively so. It takes an experienced nurseryman and author to avoid turning an easy lesson into a tangle of words. Lewis Hill believes that a well-cared-for landscape should provide an attractive background for the house, just as a proper setting does for a fine jewel. He covers dozens of ornamental trees, shrubs, hedges, and vines, giving specific tips on caring for each.

Informative, clear and with useful diagrams and pictures. I'm probably buying this one for ongoing reference for all my shrubs and small trees as well as my climbing roses.
