Pruning

Pruning & Trimming

Pruning encourages healthy growth and flowering by removing unwanted branches, buds or spent flowers. The art of pruning is a skill and when done correctly leaves you with a visually appealing plant that is healthy and happy.

Pruning is about working with a plant’s natural growth pattern as it’s developing, as well as maintaining mature tree and shrub species. In general, a successful pruning job will leave you with healthy, beautifully shaped fruit trees or shrubs that look like they haven’t been touched at all.

Benefits from Pruning

Health and Structural Soundness

Any diseased, injured, dying, or dead branches should be removed for the health of the tree.

Encourage Flowering and Fruit

Pruning can coax growth spurts (produces the flowers and the fruit) to form on the branches.

Keep Evergreens Proportionate

Pruning will keep boundary hedges under control. Evergreens benefit from light pruning as it keeps their foliage dense, and therefore, attractive.
