Pruning correctly and frequently not only preserves plants in fantastic form but also helps to encourage healthy development. We at Must Have Maintenance know the value of routine pruning and monitor the development of your plants all year long to make sure they receive the attention they need from a pruning perspective.

Pruning correctly and frequently not only preserves plants in fantastic form but also helps to encourage healthy development. Benefits of pruning include, but are not limited to,

• Making it possible to cut away infected, damaged, or otherwise undesirable plant development
• Plant health is enhanced and preserved.
• Dangers from limbs and other flying objects are mitigated.

It is recommended to prune summer-flowering trees and shrubs in late winter or early spring, just before they begin to push out new growth and blossom. It is recommended that you prune spring-blooming trees and shrubs in late spring or early summer, after their blooms have faded.

To guide new growth in the desired direction, prune right above the bud, sloping down and away from it. If you make the cut too abruptly or at too sharp an angle, the bud can perish. Remove any buds that are facing inward when pruning above a node that has one or more buds. Cuttings should be made just above the parent or side branches and generally perpendicular to them.
