It will not just provide a return on investment by enhancing your curb appeal but also will expand the life of your plants.
If you desire for your tree to have a particular shape or to grow in a particular direction, a good expert trimming will get it done. Here are three reasons why every homeowner should consider professional pruning.
THE BEST TIME TO PRUNE SHRUBS AND TREES
A typical tree pruning cycle is three to five years, but size, type, and health play a significant role in determining the cycle that will work best for your trees.
The best time for shrub and tree pruning is anytime between late fall and early spring. The least desirable time to prune a landscape plant is during the summer which is the time of new growth and development. Pruning when new growth has occurred can stunt the plant’s bloom abilities for the year.
Late fall and early spring are considered the best time for pruning because, in the fall and winter, trees enter a dormant phase, this implies that their growth at this point is halted. A harder ground caused by winter gives the pruning experts easy access to the tree and the sparse canopy makes branches very easy to spot problems and prune and trim properly.
SHRUB PRUNING METHODS
Shrubs of course are natural living things and so the methods used need to take into consideration the effects of pruning. There are certain standards we may use in a general way when it comes to pruning. However, the situation or condition of some shrubs may require a different or special method to handle it. There are several ways we can conduct pruning which include:
TREE PRUNING OR TRIMMING
Pruning trees is an important maintenance practice incorporated into every homeowner’s landscape care. There are basically two goals every homeowner aims to achieve when considering tree pruning or trimming. These include;
– Hazard Reduction Tree Pruning addresses a specific danger that is caused by visible safety problems in your tree, for instance; low hanging branches over sidewalks. narrow angled branches that overhang your home would be eliminated. Tree branches that obscure the entry of your home or property are advised to be removed for security reasons.
– Maintenance Tree Pruning improves the health and structure of a tree. In this aspect, special care is taken in order to improve the appearance, shape, and overall health of your tree. Without pruning, many trees can be victims of diseases and are likely to suffer overcrowding. Pruning out the dead branches or shoots from trees increases the possibility of halting the progress of most diseases that can kill the whole tree.
