Pruning Trimming
Pruning or trimming trees is both an art and a science. While there may be as many reasons to prune a tree as there are trees, the important factor is that there is a reason to prune and trim. Each cut has the potential of changing the growth habit, character, and health of a tree. Your arborist can determine the type of pruning needed to establish and maintain the health of your trees, and is an expert at pruning each species of tree to develop and maintain its unique aesthetic form.
Young trees are pruned to develop a structure that will meet the need of the tree and the purpose it serves in a landscape. Pruning cuts are made with an eye to the future. The pruning of a mature tree is driven by practices that are known to maintain health.
