Pruning is one of the most important aspects of Landscape Management. It can not only maintain a plant’s natural or “shaped” form, but also (if done correctly) contributes to the overall health of the plant as it allows for air, light, and water to properly travel through and around the plant.
Specifically, pruning is primarily done to remove dead, dying and diseased branches, as well as branches that are crossing or growing away from their intended path. Pruning can also keep a plant within a defined boundary i.e. away from buildings, sidewalks, cars, etc.
This service is ideally done for shrubs — a minimum of three times during the growing season, and for trees — once thoroughly in the late fall or winter and on an as-needed basis throughout the growing season
