All trees tend to be healthier and more attractive when regularly pruned, but trimming the wrong way can actually do more harm than good. Avoid the following mistakes so you can keep your trees healthy and beautiful.
1. Pruning Too Soon
Newly planted young trees typically need some time to establish before major pruning begins. Most saplings have been pruned at the nursery to a good early form. Pruning heavily right away can weaken the tree before it has a chance to grow in a healthy root system in its new home.
Well-maintained trees are not hard to spot. They make your backyard attractive and tidy. But to achieve this, you need to regularly have the trees pruned, mulched, fertilized, and examined by a tree expert.
Otherwise, neglected trees tend to overgrow and encroach on nearby structures, endangering those around them. They also make your home look shabby. Additionally, your trees may begin to die if you fail to take care of them.
If you have decided to remove a tree on your property, you need to call a professional tree removal service. Professional tree services can remove trees and tree stumps safely, without damaging the surrounding area. If you have never hired a tree removal service before, you might wonder what is involved in the tree removal process.
The tree removal process involves several steps.
Step One: Assess the tree and surrounding area
Whether you collect unique plants or whether you have an unusual fruit tree left by a previous owner, the tree will need regular care to ensure it stays healthy and strong. Typically, any tree will need occasional pruning to remove problem branches (such as branches that are diseased or dead, or that rub against another branch). But some trees have special pruning considerations as well.
Here are some tips for trimming your unusual fruit trees.
Pine trees are quite different from deciduous trees. They don't need trimming nearly as often as they already tend to grow into a confined shape on their own. They also stay green year-round, so you don't have to worry much about fungal infections developing in any fallen leaves beneath the tree. But this does not mean that pine trees never need any care. Here are some key signs that indicate your pine tree could benefit from some professional attention.
