STREET TREES
PRUNING WHILE IN FLOWER CONDEMNED. “I was interested to read of the paragraph in connection with the pruning of the trees in Miriam Street.” stated Mr H. L. Esau this morning. “It seems a great pity that these trees are pruned in the middle of flowering. There is no reason whatever why they cannot be pruned immediately after the blossom has dropped. The young growth has not advanced sufficiently to make any difference to the future shape of the three if the pruning is carried out after the flowering. The residents would then get the full benefit of the beauty that these trees give us when in flower.”
