Peonies, Rhodies and Other Spring Bloomers

Once the blooms have died, it’s time to prune spring blooming shrubs such as rhododendron, spirea and lilac; and trees such as magnolia and dogwood for size or shape. Doing it now means you will not risk removing next year’s flowers. Even if you do not need to prune, remove all dead flower heads to eliminate a site for diseases and to conserve plant energy which would go producing unwanted seeds.
