Winter Tree Pruning
Benefits of Winter Tree Pruning:
Pruning trees during the winter can be healthy for the tree because the tree is dormant and not actively growing. This means that the tree will not have to devote energy to healing wounds caused by pruning, allowing it to focus on preparing for the nest growing season. Additionally, the tree’s structure is more visible without leaves, making it easier to identify and remove dead, diseased, or damaged branches. Pruning in the winter also helps to reduce pests and diseases that may be present in the warmer months. Overall, pruning in the winter can improve the tree’s overall health and appearance. However, it's important to note that some tree species are more sensitive to pruning than others and may be damaged if pruned during the winter. It’s also important to consider the weather conditions during the winter, like severe frost or drought, which can cause stress to the tree. One of our certified Arborists will be able to assess the condition of the tree and determine the best time to prune it.
