Along with taking preventative action against common tree diseases, now is a great time to have your trees pruned. While pruning can be done anytime of the year, pruning before spring is a great way to enhance the beauty of your landscape trees right in time for the new season.

Landscape trees require a bit more maintenance than those found in the forest for safety and aesthetical reasons, according to Trees are Good. Pruning can remove any branches that have died in the winter, as well as remove branches that are overcrowded, limbs that rub together, and any branches or limbs that could be hazardous. Additionally, Trees are Good shares that proper pruning increases light and air penetration to the inside of the tree’s crown and landscape below, which is essential for proper growth.

Tree pruning from Cartwright Tree Care is one of the most important things you can do for your trees and their health. Our skilled professionals will help your trees reach their full potential while reducing the chance of problems. Contact us today at 816-965-6758 to learn more!
