Pruning

Key Pruning Services for Tree Health & Beauty

Structural Pruning

We shape the tree’s crown by removing weak, crowded, or competing limbs, improving its long-term strength and appearance.

Deadwood Removal

Our team safely removes dead, damaged, or diseased limbs to reduce the risk of falling debris and improve overall tree vitality.

Seasonal Maintenance

Routine pruning services tailored to the season help prevent disease, promote flowering or fruiting, and maintain a balanced canopy.

Garden maintenance is a lot of work and should be done on a regular basis. Tree pruning is an integral part of it. Its purpose is to form a new crown by removing old or dry branches, cutting off interfering branches. Thus, it is possible not only to achieve an excellent decorative effect, but also to solve a number of important practical problems.

General Rules for Pruning Branches

  • Pruning of apical shoots. Removal of “crow’s feet”.
  • Removing crossing branches so that they do not interfere with each other’s growth.
  • Pruning lower branches at each fork.
  • Elimination of branches growing towards the trunk of a tree and looking down.
  • Removal of top branches that grow between the trunk and a full-fledged branch.
  • Thinning out thickening branches that have grown too close together
  • Elimination of shoots from the roots. They are at the base of the tree.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do you need regular pruning of trees?
  • To obtain a strong tree skeleton that provides high yields, and protection from snow, and strong gusty winds.
  • For regular yields throughout the canopy, and for comfortable fruit picking and further care.
  • To improve plant healthm i,munity, and appearance.
What happens to a tree if yearly pruning is avoided?
  • Over time, a rapidly growing crown will begin to thicken regularly with extra shoots.
  • In the absence of proper penetration of light into the crown, the branches will die off, which contributes to the reproduction of pests and infection.
  • Shading of overgrown trees contributes to strong elongation and fruiting in the upper part of the crown.
  • As a result, fruiting is shifted to the periphery of the crown.
