Springtime brings blooms and lush foliage, but that growth depends on a healthy foundation. Keeping trees trim appropriately will keep them growing robustly long-term.
When is the best time to prune trees?
Fall or Winter- after the leaves change in the fall but before the spring bloom. Pruning too early can harm your trees and shrubs.
Why should I have the trees trimmed between fall and spring?
The dormant stage that trees enter during fall and winter halts growth. The trees are inactive and the temperatures outside get quite cold. This is the perfect setting for pruning. Trimming after a tree has begun blooming will limit its growth potential.
Are there benefits to pruning in late fall or winter?
Pruning your trees while they are dormant sustains its current health and promotes growth. Also, the dormancy period will save money and time by helping with management of disease.
