Some Hints on Pruning
This is the month of the prun
ing hook Long ago Isaiah said,
“They shall beat their swords
into plowshares, and their spears
into pruning hooks." A prudent
use of this garden tool is to be
recommended for like the surg
eon’s scalpel it should be used to
make better not to maim or even
lull.
Recently we made a trip from
Columbia to Charleston and hav
ing pruning in mind we saw di
verse and sundary examples of
this ancient art, for we see what
we are interested in.,
Crape Myrtles
There are more ways for grow
ing crape myrtles than for al
most any other shrub in our gar
dens. On our street they are cut
back to naked stubs each fall and
present a hideous sight all win
ter. If a low-spreading plant is
wanted, the new dwarf crape
myrtle should be bought. On the
campus of the University of S. C.
they are allowed to grow into 20-
foot trees, some with single trunks
ethers with multiple trunks. Down
at Swansea, Mrs. Cogburn grows
hers well above the eye-level and
then in late winter she cuts off all
growth smaller than a lead pencil.
The new growth soon hides the
scars and they do not have to be
treated to keep them from form
ing dead wood which is an invita
tion for disease.
Along the street in one of the
older towns on the way we saw
where a tall hedge had been cut
half way to the ground, its nak
ed stems held high like dead trees.
If they lose their hedge they ask
ed for it.
At Middleton Gardens there is
an old plant whinh bears a sign
to let the touris know that it is a
sycamore. It must be a century
old. Downtown in Charleston crape
myrtles are everywhere, espec
ially in Hampton Park. Most of
them—and there are as many of
them as there are azaleas—are
grown naturally as multiple trunk
trees, but one fine example at
least has a single trunk which re
sembles pink alabaster at this sea
son for the old bark has peeled
away as the tree increased in cir
cumference.
Berried Treasure
All along the famous battery,
berride shrubs have been pruned
up into tree-like plants, often
overtopping old weather-worn
walls. Some call them over-sized
bonsai, sculptured trees, trubs, or
shrubs with a poodle-cut, but
whatever they are called they are
extremely decorative, covered
with brilliant red berries at this
season. These include pyracanthas
in variety, Washington hawthorn,
the native yaupon, and many oth
er hollies. Some of the pyracan
thas are trained against the walls
in vine-like designs and are most
attractive.
Classis Ivy
Ivy is everywhere in clipped
edgings, in controled garlands ag
ainst walls and as ground cover in
free form shaped beds under
and trees. The shining vines are
allowed to form low coverings
for tree trunks, like petticoats.
THE ROSE
Roses grow in many Charleston
gardensand by the looks of the
bushes the practical gardeners do
not cut them nearly to the ground
each spring. They have the oldest
canes removed at ground level,
one or two each year and the oth
ers cut back about half of their
last season’s growth. Some of the
plants are 50 years old or older
but they are flourishing roses
each year instead of a few cab
bage sized flowers for a year or
two and then throwing in the
towel.
Just ShruLs
All those plants we just call
shrubbery are treated like the
roses, having the older parts re
moved at ground level to encour
age vigorous new growth in an
open well balanced framework.
Charleston Charm
All this skillful pruning gives
the old city a distinctive charm
which is priceless and which the
rest of us go miles to see each
season.
