I am somewhat confused as to why styling in Autumn is risky. If the roots
are not disturbed and the plant is dormant, why can't styling be
accomplished? It would seem to me that the danger from insects, bacteria
and fungus would be diminished as you move into the colder times of the
year. If the experienced folks on this list say "don't do it" - I'll trust
their judgement and experience. However, I would like to understand the
reasons for it.
