When do I prune this?
Secateurs in hand, unsure whether you are about to remove next year's flowers.
When should I prune this, and does it flower on old wood or new? Say what goes wrong if I get the timing wrong.
Making it yours
- Paste your own material where the prompt asks for it. Everything above that line is instruction, not content.
- Delete any rule that does not apply to you. A shorter prompt that fits beats a thorough one that does not.
- If the answer comes back vague, add a line saying what you do not want. Constraints work better than encouragement.
Routine care. Watering tests, repotting calls, pruning timing, compost mixes, and taking cuttings that root.
