If you have a flourishing rhododendron you may need to consider pruning for a variety of reasons be it maintenance, rejuvenation or shaping your plant. With a rhododendron, pruning is very simple no matter the reason for it and you can create a shrub with abundant flowers, foliage, and dense branches all of which contribute to a wonderful garden. The first thing we would point out is that Rhododendrons don't require regular pruning and can go years without needing to be pruned with the exception of removing any damaged or diseased branches.
