They needed hardly any pruning this year as there was little die-back.<br />As for purple sand cherry - they are a short-lived shrub. Many people here lost theirs after a harsh winter several years back. Mine came through it fine but then started to decline anyway due to age. They get spindly, even with whacking back and don't put out that many leaves. The 2 out front were dug out last year after 14 years and I just replaced them with perennials as there is a weeping mulberry in the middle of the bed. Pull out the catalogues and start thinking about something new - it's always fun.<br />JudithJudith @ Lavender Cottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16361061491506137380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2237620571891876574.post-41970601144211536142012-05-07T18:58:00.739-04:002012-05-07T18:58:00.739-04:00I have a new dawn climber that has just started to...I have a new dawn climber that has just started to bloom. I am hoping it will eventually work its way up and over our patio covering but it has been rather slow growing. This is it's second year but I am still hopeful. If a plant doesn't do well after a good cutback and feeding I will usually find a new home or toss it. Harsh I know...Enjoy your time in the garden.
