But every once in a while that whole blooms on old wood or blooms on new wood thing would escape me and I would prune it at the wrong time of year. The poor thing would have to spend a barren, boring season because I went crazy with the Felco 2 pruners before I remembered not to.

Boomer, you are a hoot! Geez, hope that Mr B wasn't with you when you "went crazy with the Felco 2 pruners." Oh well, I guess by now he knows enough to stay away from "the bride" when she's pruning, huh?

Did I say that?
