Bigger isn’t always better – especially when it comes to greenery. As flowering shrubs, hedges or gardens grow out of control, limbs become tangled, disease is allowed to spread. This means serious problems for your property. Proper Saskatoon pruning services encourage growth in young trees, remove dead branches, and mean healthy plant life.
The Importance of Pruning Plants
Certain lawn and garden tasks can be handled without a lot of expertise but pruning isn’t one of them. Early spring is known as growing season. This time of year sees grass, flowers, trees and shrubs shooting upward. Trimming back small branches is a part of general maintenance, but the right pruning technique can extend a tree’s life. Plant material doesn’t stick to any rules, growing up until it becomes ugly and even dangerous. Whether dealing with something as small as a rose or as large as a tree, pruning technique makes all the difference. Over-pruning can stunt growth and leave wounds behind. It is easy to play it safe, clipping off small bits and pieces at a time, but this isn’t always enough to mean proper results.
As any tree service will tell you, the right tools can make or break a project. For those higher spaces, pruning shears just won’t do the trick. Plants like hedges and trees grow upward, and it doesn’t take long for them to get out of hand. Climbing a ladder with a trimmer is not exactly the safest way to get the job done. In addition to heights, operators have to be wary of other dangers, like power lines. Without proper pruning, broken limbs and dead wood can be knocked loose during heavy winds and storms. Storm damage can mean downed utility lines, broken windows or dents in vehicles. Getting rid of vulnerable areas means removing these risks before any damage even occurs and that is what makes routine care so appealing.

It does not take much for gardens to grow out of control. Early summer has all the right resources to allow flowers, fruit trees and vegetable patches to thrive. Taking a bit off the top reduces the size of bushes and vines but that doesn’t necessarily mean they are healthy.
