Tree Pruning

If you have trees on your property, there is no doubt that you want them to last a long time by keeping them as healthy as possible. There is an indescribable beauty to trees that can make or break the aesthetic of your property. Without the proper care, your trees can start looking less like nature’s warm welcome to your home and more like the opening shot of a horror movie.

Several unfortunate things can happen if you don’t prune your trees seasonally.
First, your trees can begin to lose their shape. If you see a tree that is bending in all sorts of unusual ways, it is a tell-tale sign that the tree is not healthy. Abnormal shapes in trees cause uneven weight distribution. This will typically lead to branches braking off or splintering. This problem is especially important to attend to if you have trees near your house or vehicles, as they could fall off and damage your property.

A tree that has lost its shape is not the only cause of branches breaking and/or splintering. This can happen all on its own if seasonal tree pruning is not a common practice. Branches that have been damaged can allow disease to enter which can wreak havoc on your tree and potentially kill it. Seasonally pruning your trees can help promote growth (in a healthy way), prevent disease and hazards, enhance the production of fruit, and even save you money over time.
