Pieris Japonica, Cloud Pruning 2021 Part 1 September 22

I normally cloud prune this in June after all new growths have turned green. With the heat waves and my eye surgery, I am doing this is September. I have more to prune off and there will be less growth after the prune. Also, all the flowers for next year will be pruned off. I am good with that sine I prefer the clouds over the flowers. A give or take.
Pieris grows fast and uneven. To maintain the clouds, pruning is needed every year. Otherwise the clouds will be gone (like at the beginning of the video). Good thing is you can always go back on this decision. I find the work manageable since its growth rate also make it very forgiving. No worries about mistake/permanent damage.
