Time to Prune the Blueberry Bushes

The best time to prune the blueberry bushes is when they are dormant; which is winter. So on Sunday, when the weather was warm and spring-like, we got out there and cut back the old canes and the branches that were covering the walkways. It seemed like we were cutting back a lot, but when we were finished, you couldn't tell that we had done anything.
I guess that's a good thing. Hacked back bushes look terrible, and ours are still attractive.
And if all goes well this spring, we will be picking blueberries come Fathers Day. Yay!!!
HAPPY WINTER!!!
