| Abstract/Contents: | "The effects of timing of pruning in relation to cold hardiness of X Cupressocyparis leylandii (A. B. Jacks, and Dallim.) Dallim. and A. B. Jacks. 'Haggerston Grey' and Lagerstroemia L. 'Natchez' were evaluated on 6 test dates from August 1989 to March 1990. Pruning treatments decreased the cold hardiness of both taxa compared to unpruned controls on 5 test dates. Cold tolerance of 'Haggerston Grey' decreased for 4 to 5 months following the August and October pruning compared to the unpruned controls. 'Haggerston Grey's' cold tolerance were reduced by 6C in February. October and December pruning of 'Natchez' reduced cold hardiness by 4C in January. However, cold hardiness of January and February pruning treatments was similar to unpruned controls. In general, the data indicated that plants of 'Haggerston Grey' pruned in October through February were less cold hardy than plants pruned in August. Ideally, 'Natchez' crape myrtle should be pruned in late winter." |
