Eliminates Plant Deadwood

Dead branches and twigs can obstruct sunlight, hindering photosynthesis and overall growth. Removing this deadwood allows the plant to redirect its energy towards healthy growth.

Reduces Structural Strain

By removing overly heavy or overgrown branches, pruning minimizes the risk of structural failure, such as branch breakage or even a tree collapse or split of the bush or shrub.

Disease Prevention and Pest Control

By enhancing air circulation within the plant, pruning helps to keep insects and fungi from spreading and preserves the plant’s general health and resilience to environmental stresses

How often should I prune my trees, shrubs, and bushes?

The frequency of pruning depends on the tree and bush species and its specific needs, but most trees and bushes benefit from annual or semi-annual pruning.

What is the best time of year to prune bushes and trees?

Generally, pruning is done during the dormant season, typically late fall to early spring, when the bush or tree is not actively growing.

What is the difference between pruning and trimming?

Pruning and trimming are often used interchangeably, but there is a subtle difference. Pruning focuses on removing dead, diseased, or damaged branches to improve the health and structure of the plant. Trimming, on the other hand, is more concerned with shaping the appearance of the tree or bush, such as removing overgrown or uneven limbs or branches.

Do I need a permit to prune my trees or bushes on my property?

Pruning your trees may occasionally require a permit, particularly if they are situated in a public right-of-way or are shielded by local laws. For specific requirements, Green Leaf Tree Services can check with the planning department of your Locale.

How much does tree or bush trimming or pruning cost?

The size of the tree or bush, the scope of the project, and the location of the plant all affect how much trimming or pruning will cost. However, professional services can cost anywhere from $50 to $500 or more.
