Dormant Tree Pruning | Professional Tree Service Information

"Rennovative Pruning" is the art of bringing shrubs and trees back into scale with the rest of the landscape. Most shrubs benefit from a rejuvenation every few years, and the timing of tree pruning and tree thinning critical. Evergreens and most foundation plants, whose main purpose is foliage, can be severely reduced in scale during late winter, January-February. Once they are brought back to their original size, they will leaf back out as spring arrives. A healthy dose of fertilizer will help in this process.

There are tree pruning and tree thinning techniques to shaping the shrubs or trees in order to achieve the desired look that you want in the spring, and remember, timing is everything. You do not want to wait too late in the year to perform this tree pruning and tree trimming. Pruning during the dormant season, late winter, gives these broadleaf evergreens the best chance of setting new leaf buds in the spring.
