The Importance of Tree Pruning
Some folks love the au naturale look of trees as they take on a life of their own and grow with wild abandon. And, while that may be suitable for an area that is not close to your home, many folks with trees adorning their front yards and landscaping around their backyard, prefer to have trees pruned and kept in shape.
Not only is pruning great for aesthetics, it is also very healthy for the tree. Pruning helps to produce stronger plants and can stimulate fruit or flower production. For many homeowners it is also a question of safety. They don’t want branches falling off and causing property damage, or utility line damage, etc. So they must be cut back.
Tree pruning for the health of the tree involves making sure any diseased or rotting branches are removed. If there are damaged or broken limbs, removing them will help to foster new growth and the closure of the wound. To keep it simple, tree pruning should involve keeping the tree’s shape as close to natural as possible. If you want an entirely new shape such, as topiary or a pyramid; it might be in your best interest to hire someone with tree pruning experience. Keeping these trees in their new shape, especially if it is not a natural form, will be something that will need a lot of maintenance. If not done correctly, it is very possible it could destroy the tree.
