Problem: Article: Guava trees grow most of their new fruit at the very end of their branches. Look at the middle of your branches for old growth from previous growing season. Focus your pruning on those branches. The old growth will be brown, look shriveled, or will branch off from the branches with the newest fruit. Once you've identified old growth, use your shears to prune off that growth. Make the cut slightly above the branch collar, which is the raised ring at the base of the branch. Then use your shears to cut off the old growth.  It's important that you don't make the cut flush with the intersecting branch. You want to leave the branch collar, so the cut heals properly. If the branch is too high for you to reach with your hand shears, you can use a lopper. Loppers look like hand shears, but with very long handles that allow you to reach higher branches. New branches that are small will produce fruit, but the fruit will be smaller than that you would get from larger branches. Use hand-held shears to cut away the smallest branches, leaving about 0.25 in (0.64 cm) of a stub at the end. This lets your tree heal properly. Every week or so, check the branches of your guava tree. To encourage the growth of large, high-quality fruits, prune away the smallest fruits in the clusters. Use small pruning shears to cut the guava's stem about 1 in (2.5 cm) above the branch. Guavas grow in clusters of 2 to 4 fruits. You should remove about half of the guavas in the cluster, unless more than half look very small. Doing so will help the tree direct its energy toward growing large fruit, as opposed to a bunch of small fruit.
Summary: Look for old growth in the middle of the branch. Cut off old growth at the base of the stem. Prune the smallest branches 0.25 in (0.64 cm) from the trunk. Cut branches with small fruits 1 in (2.5 cm) from the stem.

Problem: Article: A skirt is a great choice for any occasion, whether it’s a dinner, work meeting, or small get-together. A mid- or full-length skirt looks best with mules. Choose flat mules or mules with a heel to complement your skirt. If you want to wear a shorter skirt, opt for flat mules — they’ll provide more support and will balance out your outfit. If you’re going into the office or just want to look professional, create a great outfit with slacks or a suit. Low heel mules are a great option when wearing slacks — they look professional while also giving your outfit some flare. Add a blouse or blazer to complete the look. Jeans go with almost any type of mule, from mules with a heel to sneaker mules. Make sure the jeans are cropped — mules tend to cover up most of your feet, so balance this out by showing a bit of leg. Wearing cropped pants will also make it easier to show off your mules of choice.  Make sure your jeans aren’t too skinny. Mules are a chunkier shoe and will look a little off if you’re not wearing more loose-fitting pants. If you're wearing wide-leg pants, choose mules with a larger heel. An a-line or shift dress will look great with flat, low heel, or regular heel mules. These dresses are easy to dress up or down depending on the occasion. For a casual day out, choose flat or low heel mules. If you want a dressier look with your dress, wear wedge mules or mules with a larger heel.  If you plan on wearing statement mules with your dress, choose a dress that’s a solid color and complements the pattern or color of your shoes. Try to stay away from tight-fitting dresses when wearing mules, as they don't complement each other. Mules and a jumpsuit are one of the easiest style options — just throw on the jumpsuit and slip on your mules, and you’re ready to go. Flat and low heel mules will create a more casual look, while wearing statement or regular heel mules will take your outfit to the next level.
Summary:
Wear your mules with a mid- or full-length skirt for a versatile look. Pair your mules with slacks for a business look. Wear cropped jeans to show off your favorite type of mules. Choose an a-line or shift dress for a dressed-up or dressed-down look. Opt to wear a jumpsuit for a comfortable and easy outfit.
