Pruning trees, shrubs and plants can be beneficial to almost all landscapes. Pruning is done primarily for the following reasons:

  1. Promote flowering
  2. To promote greater fruit production
  3. Improving the health of trees, shrubs and plants
  4. Improving aesthetic appearance
  5. Growth Control
  6. Maintain a desired shape
  7. The removal of dead, damaged, diseased, and infested limb

The number one mistake most people make when pruning is pruning at the wrong time. Before you start pruning, be sure is the right time of year for your area and the tree, shrub or plant you want to prune. If you are not sure what time of year is the best contact with the Service State Cooperative Extension (County Agent). The lack of pruning at the right time of year can prevent flowering, weakening the plant and reduce growth and even cause death.

We offer the following information only as general guidelines.

evergreens with flowers should not be pruned once a year in the early spring as new growth appears Junk.

Deciduous trees and shrubs (those that lose their leaves) should be pruned once a year. This should be done mainly in the winter when they are dormant and before spring shoots appear.

For most trees spring flowering shrubs and pruning should not be performed immediately after they have bloomed. Next years buds form in this new year growth and that pruning later lead to the pruning of shoots and does not have time to reform before winter. Some examples are: azaleas, rhododendrons, India Hawthorn Redbud, Japanese Quince, fringe trees, forsythia, honeysuckle, climbing roses, most big-leaf Hydrangea, Bradford Pear, Clematis, climbing roses, Dogwood, flowering cherry, lilac, Oak Leaf Hydrangea, Saucer & Star Magnolia, Weigelia and Wisteria.

Some trees and flowering shrubs in the current (new) wood seasons and should be pruned in late winter while dormant. A pinch of rose flowers to die to maintain the plants in search of his best and help promote more flowers. Examples are: Abelia, Butterfly Bush, Snow Hill, St. Johnswort, Crepe Myrtle, Bush Roses, Camelia, Bush Cranberry, Japanese Spirea, Rose of Sharon (Althea) and chaste tree.

For the coverage you want to prune in the spring and summer as new growth appears undesirable. You will have to prune the top of the narrow coverage at the top that allows sunlight to reach the base of coverage. This will prevent thinning in sections lower coverage.

Before leaving on his adventure of pruning make sure you have the right tools. A good pair of pruning shears are sharp and clean cut branches up to ½ "in diameter. By branches of ½" – 2 "diameter, you need a pair of shears. For all the branches of more than 2" need a hand or hacksaw.

The first thing you need is to prune all dead, damaged branches, sick and infested. Make sure you can return good health to a branch just below a flush cut. Also remove any unwanted shoots and water sprouts from the base and trunk. These are fast growing shoots often unpleasant and necessary nutrients away from other areas of the tree. Often this is the pruning that is required. You want to take a few steps away from the plant and see what just pruning. If you have not achieved the desired look selectively prune a little more. Cut the side branches, promote growth and train the plant to grow into the desired shape are looking for. In small branches to ensure that these courts are ¼ inch of the adjacent branches. Take your time, standing in often to see if they have achieved the look desired. Remember, once the plums, leaving!

drastic cuts are mostly used when you have control issues and are carried out to solve a problem. An example of this is when a tree has grown into a home and causing damage. In large stems (large branches connected to the trunk) to ensure that these cuts are made from the trunk of the tree about ½ "- 1" at an angle of 60 degrees.

Hopefully our basic pruning guide, along with help from your Cooperative Extension Service State program will allow you to develop a proper pruning. Pruning is an invaluable tool for promoting and maintaining an attractive landscape and healthy.
