Here's how seasonal cutting and pruning can benefit trees throughout the year:
Winter Pruning (Dormant Season):
Structural Pruning: During the dormant season, structural pruning focuses on removing weak, crossing, or crowded branches to improve the tree's overall structure and stability. This reduces the risk of branch failure during storms and promotes healthy growth in the spring.
Deadwood Removal: Winter pruning is an ideal time to remove dead, diseased, or damaged branches, as they are more easily identified without foliage. Removing deadwood improves the tree's appearance, prevents the spread of disease, and reduces the risk of insect infestations.
Thinning: Thinning the canopy during winter pruning allows more sunlight and air circulation to reach the interior branches, promoting photosynthesis, reducing fungal growth, and enhancing overall tree... less
