Ok - I have a slow growing juniper that I am trying to prune - especially
away from the house. The dropped needles mat on to the branches below and
obscure where I want to prune. I've tried just knocking the needles to the
ground and jets of water from the hose. No good. The first works but very
piecemeal; the second is useless.


So - how do I get rid of the needles so I can prune.....
