pruning- book

15 years ago

Anyone have, use, know, of a compact simple to the point pruning book that one can take outside to use as reference. I have a few but they're so big and definitly not for outdoors. I have one for 'Flower problem solver" by Ortho and was wondering if anyone could help lead me to a similar one for pruning.- especially shrubs and trees.

Thanks-- you guys are such a wealth of knowledge and experience to draw on it's like having you all in my yard. So glad I found this site& all of you. Take care Lois

There are many pruning illustrations on Google, do you have a printer to make copies?

Sharon Yes I do However I was hoping to find a small compact book covering a lot of various vines ,trees,shrubs,evergreens etc . I had thought of photocoping from various books but to make the pages H2O proof would be $ I think. I was wanting it also for work for clients as there as many variables with similar plants and as a Basic reminder for myself.
any suggestions would be greatly appreciated or tips you have found. Thanks
Lois
