Tree Care: Topping Alternatives
If the height of the tree must be reduced, all cuts should be made to the strong laterals or the parent limb. Do not cut limbs back to stubs or to laterals not large enough to assume apical dominance.If you are unsure about the pruning and trimming of trees, feel free to consult a certified Arborist.
Thinning a tree removes unwanted branches, reduces weight, and allows air and light penetration.
