The Purpose of Pruning

We trim and prune trees on a regular basis to keep them looking healthy and beautiful. Trees require suckers to be removed, limbs that sag to be raised, and deadwood to be removed.

Good pruning is both an art and a science

Pruning is arguably one of the best things you can do for a plant if done correctly. Pruning diverts energy from plant endeavors and wood production; this can stimulate the growth of larger flowers and bigger fruit. Young shrubs are pruned lightly to encourage them to grow bushier. As shrubs grow and develop Dream Greener thins out old, weak and unproductive branches. Older plants may require more extensive trimming and neglected plants may require hard pruning.  Some plants require thinning or selective pruning to create an airier look a more an airier look.
