Pruning Holly

@JustJazzmom, I see a fairly large full branch I would like to trim off to balance the plant. Is it ok to do it now? TIA. LM

Yes, do it now; the holly is in its dormant stage now before it starts flowering soon putting out new growth.

Yes, do it now; the holly is in its dormant stage now befor it starts flowering song putting out new growth.

@JustJazzmom, thanks for that. We are back in the deep freeze here after a very nice week. I got two days in the garden in Feb for cleanup. How great is that. Big nor'easter coming this weekend. There is a chance it will miss us. Praying...LM
