Tree Pruning

        There are many reasons to prune a tree, I prune to:

•         Remove Hazards (low hanging branches)
•         Improve the asthetics of the tree or a view
•         Remove dead, diseased, damaged and dangerous branches
•         Remove water sprouts, suckers, and crossed branches
•         Establish dominant leaders (will establish stronger trunk)
•         Remove girdling roots (left untouched will kill the tree)
•         Create special effects (topiary)
  •         Control size and direction, (not topping)​​​
    • ​        Rejuvenate older plantings​
