The purpose of pruning and training is to make sure that plants are as healthy and vigorous as possible, free of structural weakness, and at the least risk of being infected by disease. The authors begin by explaining how plants grow and offer general information on the principles of pruning and training and on tools and equipment. They follow this with chapters on ornamental trees, fruit trees, ornamental shrubs, soft fruits (sometimes called berry fruits), climbing plants, and roses. In each category are instructions on basic techniques, initial training, and renovation. Also included is a dictionary of ornamental trees and shrubs. This comprehensive and practical guide lists more than 800 plants and contains more than 1,500 color photographs and illustrations. George Cohen
