  • After the snow melts and temperatures warm in the
    latter part of winter, it's the most appropriate
    time for trees to be pruned.
  • Tree pruning is used to remove wounded or
    ineffective branches in order to promote the
    growth of fruit-bearing branches and to improve
    the tree's health and beauty. Orlando Stump
    Grinding offers these helpful tips to remember
    when pruning your trees for those who are

Why prune?
  • Pruning your trees properly will result in a
    healthier, stronger, more balanced, safer, and
    more productive tree.
  • After the winter season, prune your trees to
    remove the three D's - dead, diseased, and dying
    branches. Besides enhancing the quality of the
    fruit and the life of the tree, thinning the
    branches promotes airflow, increases sunlight
    exposure, and prevents moisture from causing mold
    or fungus.

When to prune?
  • A tree is best pruned in February or March (Maybe
    earlier depending on your region and climate)
    when the trees are dormant and temperatures are
    starting to rise. However, there may be times
    when cutting a tree quickly is necessary, so
    proceed ahead and do so.

Before pruning
  • Make sure you have the right tools in proper
    working order before pruning. Clean cuts are
    easier with sharp shears.
  • You should disinfect your pruning tools after
    pruning each tree with a solution of 1 part
    bleach to 9 parts water, followed by soapy water
    and drying. Using infected tools increases the
    risk of tree disease.
  • Consider asking a second person to help you if
    your tree is large in order to be safe and avoid
    serious injuries.

How To Prune
  • It's better to prune a treeless when deciding how
    much to do. Cutting the tree causes stress and
    makes it more susceptible to diseases and
    insects. Ensure that living branches comprise at
    least two-thirds of the height of the tree by
    pruning no more than 33 percent of the crown.
    Orlando Stump Grinding says excessive pruning can
    reduce branch health and structural strength.
