Pruning

Pruning is an important part of maintaining tree health. Structural pruning on young trees is essential.

Goals that can be met through pruning:

  • Reduce breakage during extreme weather events

  • Remove or reduce risk from dead branches

  • Improve aesthetics

  • Increase clearance around buildings, walkways, or parking areas

  • Resolve structural problems

  • Increase fruit production

  • Restore trees damaged by storms or bad pruning

  • Train young trees to have good structure

Pruning is a science and an art. Incorrect pruning can be detrimental to a tree’s health.
