When to trim Indian Hawthornes?


Question:they have already bloomed, can I trim them now they are too high and too bushy

Answers:
Like most spring-flowering shrubs, Indian hawthorn should be pruned after blooming (late April or early May in central Texas). Next spring's flowers are produced on this year's growth, so if you prune heavily in the late summer or fall, you will reduce the number of flowers next spring


Whack them back after flowering. Then fert with a 16-4-8. In fall fert with a 6-12-12.
