Importance of Tree Pruning

Pruning trees is beneficial for a variety of reasons, including both aesthetics and helping to maintain the health of the tree itself. It’s important that tree pruning is done regularly and correctly in order to maintain the health and structural integrity of your trees.

Trees need to be pruned for a variety of reasons, all of which are critical to the life and the safety of your trees. To start off, you’ll want to have bad branches removed from your trees. Bad branches include branches that are diseased, storm-damaged, decaying, or weak. Another reason to prune your trees is that branches can obstruct your views or interfere with things such as your house, other trees, power lines, pedestrians, vehicles, and more. Pruning will also ensure that there are fewer scraggly limbs on trees that could either be infested with insects or could snap off in high winds.

Another benefit of pruning is that it will improve the look of your trees. Additionally, certain pruning techniques will help the tree grow into desired shapes. This will not only add to the structural integrity of the tree and maintain its health for years to come, but it will add to the beauty of the tree as well.

The best time for tree pruning is when the tree has reached the dormant season. It is important to keep in mind that emergency tree pruning can take place at any time, but the dormant season, typically fall, is the time when a tree is least likely to suffer damage. When pruning during the dormant season, the tree will lose less sap than at other times of the year and fungi and insects are less likely to cause additional damage to the tree.
