Default [IBC] Autumn styling

snip

Heavy pruning is out of the question. You would be encouraging soft, new
growth which would be subject to winter kill. Wiring could be OK, provided
you don't place major stress on any branches. Stressed branches might be
killed when frozen.

Will heavy pruning cause the plant to break dormancy? If not, I'm not
understanding how pruning can encourage ANY growth if a plant is dormant.

Thanks,
