Ilex aquifolium

It’s coming on... Required a mug of tea to do this but no wine I promise #ilex-aquifolium #pruning-ilex

Excellent trimmings, more tea for celebration, cheer you wi tea

Thank you Aly. I think a mug of tea, or a glass of chilled white depending on the plant, is an essential accompaniment to pruning. I’m sure you’d agree. 😉😂 Makes sure you regularly stand back to take it all in. @thehardygardener

I can see the difference ..

Slurp, oh yes

Oh yes - I’m sure you advised me on the tea whilst pruning- works every time 🤩😂
