Each cut can change the growth of the tree, so no branch should be removed without reason. Common reasons for pruning include:
When to Prune
Routine pruning to remove weak, dead, or diseased branches can be done any time of the year with little effect on the tree. Pruning before the spring growth flush maximizes growth and wound closure, but heavy pruning of live tissue should be avoided just after spring growth, especially on weak trees.
Pruning Techniques
Different types of pruning may be necessary to maintain a tree’s health and appearance:
Pruning Young Trees
Pruning young trees helps develop strong structure and form. Proper pruning reduces the need for corrective pruning later in life. Poor pruning can damage the tree, leaving lasting wounds.
Pruning Palms
Palm pruning typically involves removing dead or dying fronds, flowers, and fruiting clusters. Care must be taken to avoid damaging the terminal bud. Over-pruned palms grow more slowly and may attract pests. Climbing spikes should not be used on palms, as they cause permanent damage to the trunk.
