Bonnie shows us how she makes autumn pruning easy to keep your rose bushes and perennials healthy and blooming for the year.

• Autumn is the perfect time to prune your rose bushes and perennials, promoting better shape, vigor, and healthier blooms in the upcoming year.
• The STIHL ASA 20 Battery Secateurs offer sharp, precise cuts, ergonomic design, and lightweight comfort, making pruning easier on both small and large plants.
• Focus on cutting away dead or diseased wood first to prevent disease spread and always prune just above a bud to encourage strong, healthy new shoots.
• Adjust the secateurs to two different blade widths for thicker or thinner stems, allowing you to tackle various growth types with ease.
• With the AS Battery System, you can get up to 2000 cuts per charge, perfect for pruning multiple plants without frequent recharging.
• Clean your pruners between plants to avoid spreading diseases, especially after cutting diseased wood, ensuring a healthier garden overall.
