The Practicalities of Pruning
Now that spring showers have come to a close and the heat of
summer is underway, pruning has never been more important. Regular pruning
practices can mean quarantining disease, freeing up resources and helping keep
plant life thriving. So, what is keeping homeowners from grabbing a pair of
shears and taking the edge off? Well, common sense, for one thing! Only a
professional service understands the ins and outs of what keeps greenery going.

The Benefits of Regular Maintenance
Avoid Disease & Damage: It can be difficult to keep up
with a hectic growing season. It’s
easy to get lost in the weeds or caught up on gardens but problem areas spread
quickly. One diseased limb can spread to two; and then to ten in no time. That
might be a worse-case scenario but pruning does more than reduce the threat of
disease.
Creating a Professional Environment: Clean lines and
uniform shapes can improve curb appeal and lend an inviting look to properties.
In high-traffic or unbiased environments, it is nice for homeowners to have
unique visuals but it is necessary for businesses. In high-traffic or urbanized
areas, there is a lot of competition, so there is nothing more important than
setting yourself apart.
Encourage Healthy Growth: With any plant, there is good
growth and bad growth. When growth rates and patterns get out of control, they
can strangle out new buds, stalks or off-shoots. By trimming away dense or
irregular areas, you are paving the way for success.
Choosing Professional Care
There is an art to proper pruning that involves taking away extra
materials while leaving the necessary pieces behind. Over trimming can stunt
growth, and kill plants in the end. This means that all your hard work would
have been for nothing and it leaves you with the option of a bald patch in your
lawn or garden or a costly replacement. Avoid the eyesore by choosing a lawn
and garden professional to handle your pruning needs.
