About this product

Product Information

The gardening world's favorite expert on pruning offers a comprehensive guide full of tips and tricks on how to prune your trees, shrubs, and other plants so they grow to be healthy and beautiful. Covering 160 plants with clear instructions and illustrations, Cass Turnbull will show you exactly how to prune any plant in your garden. This third edition of Cass Turnbull's Guide to Pruning covers more than twenty additional plants in three new chapters. Includes all the basic pruning techniques, plus specific advice on mounding-habit shrubs, cane-growing shrubs, tree-like shrubs, vines, trees, groundcovers, fruit-bearers, native plants, and more. The result is the definitive, time-tested guide for the home gardener with friendly, expert advice. Cass Turnbull founded Seattle's PlantAmnesty, whose mission is "to end the senseless torture and mutilation of trees and shrubs caused by mal-pruning."Here are Cass' ten commandments for preventing such gardening sins- The Ten Gardener Commandments 1. Thou shalt not shear thy bush. 2. Thou shalt not top thy tree. 3. Thou shalt not plant thy sun-lover in the shade, nor thy shade-lover in the sun. 4. Thou shalt mulch. 5. Thou shalt not leave stubs. 6. Thou shalt not flush cut, neither shalt thou paint wounds. 7. Thou shalt not cover up the base of thy plant, or thy tree, or thy shrub. Neither with mulch, nor with soil, nor with any landscape material. 8. Thou shalt cut circling/girdling roots. 9. Thou shalt not compact the root zone of thy tree, nor trench near the trunk of thy tree. 10. Thou shalt not weed-whip the trunk of thy tree, nor bash it with thine mower, nor leave anything tied on thy tree or the branches of thy tree, as is done in the land of the philistines.

"Finally, the book has arrived that demystifies pruning for event the most apprehensive gardener. Unlike most encyclopedic pruning books that offer formulaic across-the-board advice...Cass Turnbull has written a useful pruning guide that clearly and simply describes how to prune commonly used garden plants to enhance both aesthetics and plant health." Pacific Horticulture "Really takes the mystery out of pruning." The Oregonian "If you've ever been to a Cass Turnbull class, you'll never forget the lessons you learned there. If you can't make her classes, or want a deeper, fuller, more explicit understanding of how to prune plants for optimal health, this book is for you."

Super impressed with this seller! They had the best price by far for this book! Both the cost of the book and the shipping fee was far better than average! The book came exactly as described, it was well packaged and quite a bit earlier than expected! The seller was polite and replied quickly to my messages. I’ll definitely make another purchase soon! Thank you to the seller! Be safe and keep up the great work!

WONDERFUL book! Better than described, in just like new condition [not just good]. Packaged very carefully, shipped very securely. Great seller, would buy from again in a heartbeat! No communication occurred, but I imagine it would have been as good as the rest of their customer service. Very happy with purchase, thank you very much!

    Perfect for me and pruning in our area, the Cascades in the PNW. Finally details of pruning and when for all the plants and bushes in our yard and all in one easy reference. No more jumping from one website to another. Seller was great and quick shipping. Charity too. Book was in really good shape, one earmarked page. Great deal.
