This story of Pocahontas has never fully been told. A key figure was Alexander Whitaker, pioneer Anglican missionary in Virginia, who taught Pocahontas the Christian faith-but is almost totally unknown today. Pocahontas had a history-altering encounter with Jesus Christ. Most Americans know the story of Pocahontas, but not the fact that she was a Christian, and the reasons for her dramatic conversion.

Keep bushes youthful and blooming freely by pruning out a quarter of the older shoots each year in winter. Prune in November & December – Cut out spent flowers when petals fade.Groundcovers/Vines – no pruning is needed right away.Containers- Although it is not essential for containers to be pruned after planting, a light pruning for shape, to remove any broken branches from shipping, or to thin out a heavily branched plant will help in the transplanting process and in the appearance of your new planting.All pruning should be done with a sharp pruning shears. Pruning should occur either before or as soon after planting as possible. Bare Root - Prune ALL bare root plants to reduce transplant shock and ensure success.Water well to settle soil around the root ball. Backfill the hole with soil, making sure the top of the root ball is visible and slightly higher than the soil around it.Place fertilizer packets into the bottom of the hole (if purchased).If necessary, add soil under the ball so the root flair is exposed. This root flair should show when the tree is planted.
