Lol, Andrea, I rather doubt it. At our last two houses DH enthusiastically did some pruning NOT to my liking (causing permanent negative structural effects), so I've forbidden him to do any here, unless under my literal micromanagement. He seems to have no sense of how plants naturally grow or where it is appropriate to cut for best effect, never mind our differences of opinion as to plant form. No, he'll always be a "weak mind, strong back, gardening slave" (his words, not mine) when it comes to plants.
He's just desperate for those tomatoes, which is why all the hovering. It's good AND necessary to keep an eye on them, but he's going to have to be patient!
It's raining today
so I won't be doing anything outside. I'm glad, because the pots were all very dry, and the tomatoes will get a good drink! I'll probably have DH go cut a flopped VERY tall stalk of one of the pool stairs irises (maybe ADVANCED DEGREE, I don't recall) which I didn't see yesterday, and bring that inside to join a stalk of GLACIER POINT we cut yesterday. (What IS it with all the tall (some flopping) stalks this year?
)
