I received a message yesterday from Trehane Nursery. I bought some blueberry plants from them last year. The message was about pruning blueberries, and included a couple of links to YouTube videos, made by Trehane, showing how to do it. So I watched the videos a few times, and guess what I did today.
Yes, today I ventured out into the garden, secateurs in hand, and attacked all my blueberry bushes. Well I didn't exactly attack them, I pruned them really, but I'm sure they thought they were under attack. It looks so easy on a video doesn't it ? But when you come to do it yourself, it's a bit daunting. Anyway I persevered, couldn't help thinking that I was cutting off a lot of fruiting branches though. Still, job done. I'll find out in the spring if I've done it correctly.
There was a large rainbow in the sky this morning, yes that's it in the photo. Remember that saying:
'A rainbow at morn,
Fair weather all gone.'
It was right again. We've had showers all day.
