Tree & Shrub Pruning and Trimming
While pruning, trimming and thinning can certainly be done any time of the year, most trees and shrubs respond best if they're pruned, trimmed or thinned in the fall or winter (while they're dormant).

Pruning is defined as the selective removal of plant parts. The objective is to produce
strong, healthy, attractive plants. To obtain the defined objective, consider the growth cycle of the species, the structure of the species, and the type of pruning to be performed.
No tree should be pruned without first establishing clearly defined objectives. The
location and size range of parts to be removed shall be specified before pruning begins. Some objectives include:
• Reduce risk of failure;
• Provide clearance;
• Reduce shade and wind resistance;
• Maintain health;
• Improve a view;
• Improve aesthetics.
Specifications for pruning are based on the objectives and should include:
• Location of parts to be removed;
• Size range of parts to be removed;
• Pruning objectives;
• Pruning types to be used.
No branch should be removed without a reason. Some reasons for pruning include:
• Safety (Hazard Mitigation) Remove branches that could fail and cause injury or
property damage. Remove branches to increase light penetration if the area is too dark.
• Health Remove branches that are diseased, contain insect-infested wood, are
crossing or rubbing, and to increase air flow.
• Aesthetics Remove branches to enhance the natural form and character of the
tree or to stimulate flower production.
Producing strong structure should be the emphasis when pruning young trees. Remove
only broken and dead branches when first planted. In one or two years, after the tree has become
established, remove no more than 25% of the canopy in one year. Consider removing defects, establishing a single dominant leader, and spacing branches well along the main trunk.
