Last spring I pruned my Orange Rocket barberry quite aggressively as it had gotten too large and was flopping. I was stunned at the size and color of the new foliage - gorgeous!

That's great to hear, they respond well to pruning, so by trimming it back you stimulated lots of fresh new, highly colorful growth. Also as you noted, these columnar, upright growers tend to become "top heavy" to split and flop open, so trimming them is needed, and because they sprout well (even from hard pruning) the action you took works well. Now all you have to do, is trim it regularly to maintain the shape. Just keep an eye on the base because sometimes older plants begin to become "leggy" at the bottom and that's when you have to become a little more aggressive with the top parts to keep it well furnished to the ground.

Thank you for the step-by-step procedural with each specimen. I didn’t realize the difference between diervilla and lonicera honeysuckle shrubs. I’d thought they were wildly invasive and eschewed them all together. Thanks to you, I’ll plant some cool splash in a border.

You are welcome, it is nice to know you are appreciating our channel and David's guidance. Diervillas are getting more prominence now, because they are some tough and reliable. And its exciting to see breeders, developing more promising new selections too. So, stay tuned! Meanwhile, thanks for watching and posting your kind comments. Have you subscribed to our channel?

Nice to see you back in the gardens for another season. I have the Royal Burgundy barberry bush. I presume maintenance (ie. trimming) would be similar to that of Little Cutie either by loppers or sequiters?🇨🇦

Thanks, glad to be out there, and back at it again! Yes, the treatment of other Berberis is pretty much the same, just with some of the bigger, more vigorous ones: as they mature, you might have to thin out the some of the older shoots and inner parts a little, to keep them bushier at the base, and stop them from becoming too woody.

Prefer hand shears to electric trimmers 👍🏼 A bit more labor but so much more control on the shape. Dislike shrubs trimmed to look like meatballs or hockey pucks. Your videos are so informative... technique and varieties I am unfamiliar with -- thank you!

Have you seen David's video on How to prune a lilac? If not, here's a link that you might find interesting because the variety (Red Pixie) that David is working on has a similar growth habit to the Bloomerangs: Gkzbin.info/www/bejne/d4jSm2lupL5jrsk The only thing that is different, is that if you trim Bloomerang after the first round of flowering finishes, you will get lots of new fresh growth that will then carry a concentration of the flowering in late Summer/ Autumn.

I also planted a smoke bush last season … should I coppice the shrub in its early stage or wait a few years ?
@OverdevestNurseries
@OverdevestNurseries 4 ай бұрын
Thanks for watching and reaching out to us. If the plant is nice and bushy, then it probably just let it grow out and become established. On the other hand, if it unshapely or even misshapen, then a little pruning will help to thicken it up and redirect growth so that it can develop into a well formed plant.

I realized this year that I planted 2 dwarf smokebushes too low, they have just started putting out leaves now but when should I try to move them up higher in the hole? Zone 6
@OverdevestNurseries
@OverdevestNurseries 6 ай бұрын
If they haven't yet put out too much soft growth, you could do it now. It will be important to lift a nice big rootball, and then incorportae more organic matter in the hole and backfill and then VERY IMPORTNATLY water them deeply and frequently until they get re-established, especially during any early summer dry spells. If, on the other hand, they have already put out lots of young sappy shoots and you are unsure about it. Then maybe the best thing to do is just let them stay, because plants are remarkably resilient, and even though they are planted too deeply, they usually will make new roots in the upper soil levels and eventually be fine (providing of course that the soil is reasonably free draining). In the mean time, go easy on mulching near the base of the stems. Adding mulch out at the drip line (perimeter of the plants) will eb fine but just don't plie it up near the inner parts of the crown.

@@OverdevestNurseries Thanks for the reply! They haven't put out much growth yet, the leaves are very small, just pushing out. Meanwhile other smokebushes in my area have already put on more much growth. I really needed a full sun, wind, deer and basically tough screening plant and I'm not sure they are liking the spot I chose along with the deep planting.

Thanks for watching and posting your comment. If you mean, the prickles on a Barberry (Berberis) then.... Yes it does have them, that's the "nature of the beast". We understand how you might find this undesirable and not want them in your garden, but on the other hand, sometimes there are circumstances where they are considered an attribute, like when creating a defensive hedge or barrier, or dissuading foraging deer etc. Have you subscribed to our channel?
