What does it mean to prune a tree?
Put simply, pruning is the process of selectively removing branches from a tree. We call it a process because it involves several jobs:
- Trimming
- Shaping
- Clipping
- Cutting back
- Weight reduction and distribution
Although it can be tricky work sometimes, it’s absolutely necessary to prune your trees, as we explain below…
Why is it important to prune a tree?
We think tree pruning must be a part of every Adelaide homeowner’s garden maintenance routine.
Pruning doesn’t just keep your trees looking like the best on the block. It also keeps them healthy in several ways:
-
Removes diseases:
Certain branches or parts of the tree may get diseased over time, and a good prune can remove any diseases or insect-infected wood.
-
Avoids pest infestation:
While some animals and critters like to live in trees, they can damage foliage and other plant life in your compound. Tree pruning helps you reduce the risk of pests infesting your beautiful garden.
-
Enables fruit and flower growth:
By pruning unhealthy branches, you’ll be making sure your tree can flower healthily and bear ripe fruit.
-
Improves tree structure:
When you get rid of branches that are crossing, rubbing or overhanging, you’ll reinforce your tree’s sturdy structure and minimise the risk of it getting damaged in foul weather.
-
Promotes safety for your tree (and you!):
Overhanging branches don’t just hamper a tree’s stability. They also pose a risk to surrounding structures and people. Tree pruning keeps you, your tree, your home and your neighbours safe.
