September 29

Most of the foundation plantings around our house are pretty overgrown.  Over the weekend I severely pruned one of the holly bushes (the non-prickly variety, thankfully.  This one is in the back of the house, and I picked it for practice.  It had been pretty badly abused in the past (pruning with hedge trimmers, which just promotes surface branching & growth). I think I removed about half the bush.
