By Charlotte Rodriguez Fall, the beginning of pumpkins, pumpkin spice coffee, crisp air, bon fires, hoodies, blankets, colorful leaves, warm afternoons. Oh, how I love this time of year. Autumn is certainly a beautiful season with all the glorious colors, cool crisp mornings, and peaceful air. Each phase of the seasons I start off asking my garden ques- tions. Late winter early spring, I question, what colors can I plant imme- diately to brighten up my garden? Summer, I quiz what plants, what col- ors, where to plant, sun or shade plant, and water re- quirements will help make the garden more beautiful and welcoming. Now that it's fall, help, how do I cut back and prune my plants and bushes? This is the most intimidating phase of the garden cycle for me. So I decided to attack the mystery of pruning, and went in search of an- swers. So much to learn. From my readings I learned, pruning will en- courage stronger growth; signal the plants to grow more branches and flow- ers; and focus the plant in the shape and direction to grow. Well, that sounds good. Where and how much do I prune? Before I got over- whelmed, I focused on one of my Salvias, S. Mex- icana (Mexican Sage). So this plant is herbaceous, opposite of woody. Her- baceous plants have soft stems; dies down to the ground; and grows back from the stems. To prune this plant, in late winter or early spring when weather is cool, cut stems down to the ground; however, don't trim the new growth. I can do that. Okay, but most of my salvias are woody, hard- ened stems. What to do with "Hot Lips," S. micro- phylla? For this type of plant, I found a general RED BLUFF GARDEN CLUB Attacking the mystery of pruning Kids of all ages are in- vited to a free Kids Spook- tacular 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 29 at Camp Discovery, at the Red Bluff Recreation Area, 1000 Sale Lane.
