To Prune or Not to Prune.

Is this a good time of year to have your trees and shrubs trimmed and prune?  Here is a tip before you call that professional to do the job right.  Pruning plants in the dead of winter promotes faster growth in the spring.  Think of it like your kid’s hair.  If you keep it trimmed and shaped, it will not only grow out properly, but will look so much better when it does.

Here are some other matters to address before making that call -

1.  Check the weather forecast.  Try to have the pruning done on a mild and dry day.

2.  Prune out the dead and diseased branches first.  This is why you need a pro.

3.  Remove the smaller and overgrown branches.

4.  Where to cut is extremely important to promote spring and summer growth.

This is probably NOT a DIY job.  It is, however routine for a tree professional.  So, if you live in the Reno area, why not call www.thetreeprofessional.com?  Greg Chavez has rightly earned that term.  He is your Reno and Northern Nevada professional tree trimmer and remover.  This is the right time of year to give him a call at (775) 420-8694.
