Hi All

As I live in northern Northumberland I'm wondering when I can start pruning my shrubs out back.

My garden calendar says late Jan. BUT it's still blummin' freezing up here and more snow forecast for weekend. Ice every other night it seems........

Do it and don't worry about the cold. I can never fathom the mysteries of gardening calendars, but the intention is obviously to get it done before the sap rises. It'll do so as soon as the weather warms up.
