November is the start of pruning season for many deciduous trees and shrubs that enter their dormancy when the cold weather arrives. It is also an ideal time to trim perennials that shone during summer, but now need cutting back before winter.
Not everything is suitable for pruning in fall, though. Some fruit trees and evergreen trees need to be cut at different times or you risk subjecting them to damage or disease. It is best to always do research when planning fall gardening jobs, just to make sure specific plants are suitable for fall pruning.
