“Reflections
from the Garden Poet’s Corner”
A CD of original poetry woven from the tapestry of the garden
and all profits are donated to the future Hartford Botanical
Garden. When completed, the Hartford Botanical Garden will
become another valuable community resource where natural beauty,
education, and an appreciation of Hartford’s heritage
can be appreciated.

Tip
Pruning
For best results prune summer flowering shrubs like PG Hydrangea,
Summersweet and Butterfly Bush in early spring just as the
leaf buds break open. Prune spring flowering shrubs like Forsythia,
Lilac, Azalea and Rhododendron from post bloom until the first
day of summer. Pines are pruned during the "candlestick"
(new growth elongated but not open) stage and other evergreens
from mid May through early July. And don't forget to keep
your tools sharp!
