Crepe Mrtyles

When is the best time to prune these back? I have 3 which are in the dormant stage right now and will soon be budding out.

Cindy these are usually very late to bud out, so anytime after last frost and before they leaf out is fine. Please don't decapitate them (Crape Murder).

Not to mention the beautiful muscles in the trunk which does not ordinarily develop when they are cobbed.

Need a good, cheap, knowledge expanding present for yourself or a friend?
