spindly and in some cases woody coarse and very ugly whats more it seems to be a noreliefinsight situation the remedy most adhered to being the hideaway method be hind a large chair is an excel lent spot right now the thought of pruning must be a very remote consideration but sharpen the scissors anyway because a bit of trimming could bring these house plants out of their most deplorable rut since pinching is done primar ily to cause bushiness and a spreading type of growth its a good idea to pinch the plant be fore it gets too high young ten der stems may be pinched by hand but the tougher types should be cut with a sharp knife always cut above a leaf joint or node to get a treelike fuchsia plant heres what to do as it is growing remove all side- shoots until a desired height is reached next pinch off the ter minal shoot to make the plant branch at the top then to get a bushier top just pinch back the new branches soleus geranium gardenia and rubber plant will become bushier as a result of pinching at home mr and mrs herb wideman will be at home to their friends on monday may 22nd from 3 to 500 pm and 7 to 900 pm the occasion being their 43th wedding anniversary cedar
