5 Benefits of Dormant Pruning
Dormant pruning is the process of performing routine maintenance pruning on trees and shrubs at a time when they are not actively growing. Elevating low hanging branches, removing damaged or broken limbs, and creating space between structures and the landscaping can all be done during late Fall and Winter. Routine pruning practices can be used, but plants can also withstand more dramatic pruning at this time of so it's also a good time to address shrubs that are growing into walks and paths or that are growing above windows creating a safety concern.
