Tree pruning may seem like an easy and menial task but actually understanding the science and reasoning behind trimming and pruning is key to having a healthy and long lasting tree.
Home ownership comes with many responsibilities. One item to not skip is regular trimming and pruning.
Different species and the location of the tree can depend on the frequency of the trimming needs. Here are the basics of tree trimming.
Here is a basic guide to follow on when to trim your trees. We follow arboriculture best practices.
Adjusting your tree care routine seasonally maximizes health and growth. Perform light trimming or remove dead branches anytime to maintain tree vitality.
During winter's dormancy, prune to encourage robust spring growth, after the season's peak cold.
Prune to correct growth directions or manage tree size, also an opportune time for addressing visible limb issues.
Blooming trees benefit from post-bloom pruning, while those flowering in late summer thrive with cuts made in winter or early spring.
Avoid pruning due to increased fungal activity and slower healing.
After a tree company has trimmed or pruned your home’s trees, be on the lookout for a few things. Besides “looking up” make sure to follow the steps given to you by your arborist on aftercare.
Depending on species and the amount of trimming or pruning you may need to stick to a basic schedule to help make your tree vibrant and healthy for years to come. This may include additional watering or a fertilizer treatment. Remember never add fertilizer to a tree unless advised by a certified arborist or tree care professional.
