           Bark, compost, etc.

        Pruning, or trimming plants, controls growth and gives them
          a pleasing look. For trees and shrubs that keep their leaves
          year round, prune in spring or winter.
          Evergreens with "needle-like" leaves may be lightly pruned
          any time.
          The best time to prune trees and shrubs that lose their leaves,
          including fruit trees and roses, is just before their leaves return
          in spring. Prune citrus (lemon, orange, etc.) in spring,
          and prune spring flowering shrubs only after last blooms 
          have wilted.
