User Comments about the How To Prune Roses "Real Men Prune Roses Bare Handed"

This is an incredibly informative DVD.no frills or fancy productions to get in the way of all there is to learn. I can't wait to see my roses this spring.How To Prune Roses "Real Men Prune Roses Bare Handed" Mr Smith casually relates volumes of knowledge about the annual shaping of rose bushes, and true to the title, he really prunes bare handed., with no blood or curses (unlike my adventures with pruning roses). I hope he plans on making more videos, like how to take care of roses the rest of the year.James obviously knows what he's doing and should make a series of DVD's for my "How To" library.

My experienced rose-loving friend says she also learned some new tricks. I was given a rose bush as a gift by my rose-loving friend, and was encouraged to watch this video to help me with pruning. What a blessing. This video is a 'must' for all rose-growers. I was a little intimidated until I watched this video, and now I am confident.

"How to Prune Roses" is a clear, easy to understand teaching video. Highly reccommended. I never "got it" before, but with this in-home horticulturist, showing me, step by step, over and over again, I finally got it. Now, when I need a refresher course, there he is.

I pruned roses for years with only one glove, and must say, with the Plantsmiths' clear instruction we can all discard the gloves. Anyone can prune successfully (and bare handed) with the Plantsmiths' instruction. I have this recording in VHS format, and it is very clear/easy to follow. It's not a "fancy" recording, but takes you up close to the simplicity of pruning.
