When is the best time to prune plants that flower in the summer or fall? Why?

What will be an ideal response?


The time schedule for pruning usually depends on when the plant flowers or bears fruit.
If a plant flowers in the spring, it should be pruned after it flowers. This means that
flower buds are developed during the previous season's growth. Remember that there
must be flowering and fertilization of the flower buds before fruit will develop. Plants
that flower in the summer or fall are usually pruned just before growth begins in the
spring. In this case, the flower buds develop on the new growth (current season's
growth).
