What a powerful quote! You’re totally right, it encompasses everything you need to know about proper pruning. You’ve got to be diligent about it, knowing exactly when your trees need to be pruned. But, you’ve got to know how much to prune as well. It’s not just a matter of deduction, and it’s got to be done delicately and fondly.
