Winter Pruning: The Key to a Healthy, Flourishing Spring
As the cold months settle in and your trees sit dormant, it might seem like there's nothing to do until spring. But now is actually the perfect time to act if you want strong, healthy trees when the weather warms up again.
Winter pruning isn’t just a good idea—it’s essential for long-term tree health and appearance. Here's why:
Why Winter Is the Best Time to Prune
When trees are dormant, they’re less vulnerable to stress and disease. Without leaves in the way, it’s also easier to see the structure of the tree and make clean, strategic cuts. This reduces the risk of decay, pest infestations, and storm damage later on.
By taking action now, you're setting your trees up for a powerful spring growth spurt and reducing the risk of limbs breaking under the weight of new growth or future storms.
What Winter Pruning Can Do for Your Trees:
Remove dead, damaged or diseased wood
Improve shape, balance, and overall structure
Prevent overcrowding and promote better air flow
Reduce risk to buildings, people, and power lines
Encourage healthier spring growth and flowering
