When is the best time to trim my trees?
This is a question we get a lot. The answer we most often give is "yesterday". As arborists, we want a tree to maximize its energy and resources and put growth on in the right places. If we can eliminate bad growth habits and unwanted limbs, "bad" growth will be redirected. Most trees can be safely pruned year-round Some diseases such as Oak Wilt and fireblight require that we only prune during dormancy on susceptible trees. Our sales arborists will make you aware of these intricacies when you schedule a consultation.
