PRUNING, THINNING, TRIMMING

Everything your trees need to look and be their best

Prune, thin, trim

What is it and what’s the difference?

Here’s the breakdown. Pruning takes care of the unnecessary (damaged branches and dead/diseased branches) for a healthy and resilient tree. Thinning improves your tree’s inner structure – an important service for avoiding large trees and high maintenance. And for the perfect shape, trimming – the art of shaping trees to fit their space and look their best. In conclusion, they all work together to help trees the way you want and need them to.

How trees grow better with pruning, thinning, and trimming

01.

Health Support

Thinning out branches creates a breezy canopy, inviting fresh air to promote strong branches for a firm and healthy tree

02.

Stronger Trees

Regular tree pruning removes the unnecessary and compromising branches to help trees properly distribute energy for strong systems

03.

Size Appropriate

Maintain a tree that fits the space and avoid the expensive costs associated with reduction of large trees, and hack jobs

04.

Safety

Encourage and develop strong root systems and branch/trunk structure with the appropriate pruning to avoid tree decline and damages

05.

Year-Round Charm

Know your trees are maintained and shaped properly while developing strong branches, trunk, and roots.

06.

Balance

Pruning opens up the canopy, allowing more sunlight in the interior for balanded growth

  • Pruning:

    • Purpose: Enhances the overall structure, health, and productivity of the plant by eliminating dead or diseased branches.
  • Thinning:
    • Definition: Reducing the density of a plant by selectively removing certain branches, shoots, or foliage.
    • Purpose: Improves air circulation, sunlight penetration, and encourages more robust growth by allowing resources to be distributed more effectively.
  • Trimming:
    • Definition: Cutting back or shaping the outer parts of a plant to control its size or achieve a desired form.
    • Purpose: Maintains the aesthetic appearance of the plant, controls its size, and encourages healthy growth

The amount of pruning depends on the type of tree.

Yes, excessive pruning can stress trees and their roots, and negatively impact their health.

If your tree is too dense, has no clear view into its interior, has overextending branches, overcrowded interior with crossing/rubbing branches, suffers from imbalances from leaning branches, expressing abnormal signs, then it’s time help the tree.

Thinning is often done during the dormant season, but it can be performed throughout the year. Avoid thinning during periods of active growth to minimize stress.
