ARE YOU LOVING YOUR TREE
TO DEATH WITH PRUNING

With everyone so aware of the environment and proactive in saving trees, we are causing more damage than good. When it comes to tree services, one thing is noticeable the best place to start is to provide your trees with the correct maintenance. Therefore, if you maintain proper tree care, are you helping or harming your trees. The first and most important maintenance is tree pruning.  

ARE YOU FAILING AT PRUNING  

Tree trimming and pruning are one aspect overlooked until it is too late. If you live in an urban environment, you need to monitor your trees and prune them to provide growth to ensure they fit in with their surroundings.

Yes, we know you have had your pruning shears do different trimmings on your trees. For example, maybe you removed elevation, did some structural pruning, removed deadwood, or did reduction pruning. Still, you need to have a plan and goal to prevent unnecessary pruning when you do tree pruning.  

The truth is that a pruning cut creates wounds, but it needs to be done correctly by a trained tree pruning service. It helps reduce sucker growth when done correctly, allowing the branches to develop appropriately.  

Furthermore, the best time for tree pruning is done in winter, allowing the wounds to heal and close faster. Still, pruning a tree when it is smaller prevents making massive cuts, and with the correct juvenile pruning, it is safer to grow a filling tree.

Lastly, the wound seals appropriately using the correct cuts and prevents larger cavities from developing. Hence, if you do a DIY tree pruning and done incorrectly. The cuts take longer to heal and lead to decay while creating holes in your tree.

In addition, poor pruning leads to tree decline and invites unwanted disease and pests.  

THE REALITY OF TREE PRUNING  

The truth is that a tree is an extension of the house and provides curb appeal, as it is the first thing people notice. However, a tree presents different benefits to your life and home. Having maintained landscaping improves the home’s value while increasing curb appeal.  

A healthy tree helps boost your mental state when looking out the window first thing in the morning as the sun shines on the leaves. Then, it provides you with shade and a place for your kids to play on a hot day.  

When pruning a tree, you change its shape altering it to fit your needs. For example, you have two trees underneath a power line and notice they have undergone tree trimming for a purpose so that the branches do not damage the power lines.  

On the other hand, you will shape your tree in a round shape every year to make it visually appealing. So, pruning is done to help remove hazards and reduce the risk of falling on the roof. Alternatively, tree pruning is done to remove diseased or dead branches.  

Hence, if you call in a professional tree pruning service, they do pre-emptively cut off the branches to eliminate the risk of it falling on the home or someone. Another way they reduce tree risks is by reducing or subordinating pruning.

With subordinating pruning, they remove the weight of the branch ends to leverage the wind impact. The arborists follow arboriculture regulations to reduce risks by still providing your tree with a vital part in your landscaping for longer.
