Shrub Trimming and Shrub Pruning

Spring Shrub Trimming / Pruning: Spring shrub trimming is a matter of timing when deciding when your shrubs in Hagerstown MD should be trimmed or pruned.

Spring blooming shrubs should have shrub trimming and / or shrub pruning right after the spring blooming shrubs finish blooming like forsythia, azalea, lilac, ninebark, rhododendron, Nanking Cherry Bush and Bridal Wreath Spirea. Any diseased, damaged branches or dead wood will be removed at this time as well.

Summer Shrub Trimming / Pruning: Yews, some holly and boxwoods need summer shrub trimming and this helps maintain the proper size and shape for the area the yews, holly and boxwoods were planted. Older and neglected shrubs can be pruned or trimmed back at this time of year to help reinvigorate new growth. Any diseased, damaged branches or dead wood will be removed at this time as well.

Fall Shrub Trimming / Pruning: Yes some fast growing shrubs can be trimmed lightly and shaped up before winter and snow arrives here in Washington County Maryland. Emerald Green Arborvitae is one shrub that should be trimmed in late summer or early fall to help keep the heavy snows of winter from damaging the Emerald Green Arborvitae by causing the trunks to lay out when heavy snows lay on the Emerald Green Arborvitae. Any diseased, damaged branches or dead wood will be removed at this time as well.
