Proper pruning can enhance the value of your trees. One study shows that for every dollar spent on proper pruning, you get a return of $1.59 in increased value and benefits. Tree Loving Care provides this with love. Not only do our arborists love trees, they continually improve their tree knowledge by attending workshops, seminars, webinars and with in-house training. There are many ways to describe pruning from crown raising and cleaning to vista pruning. These are described in the ANSI Standards. We do all tree work in accordance with these standards.
Training young trees should start early in their life. This involves selecting the branches that will become the proper structure for the tree that will remain for a very long life. Branches that have a very poor angle of attachment tend to trap bark in the bottom of the angle instead of having wood. Bark does not have the strength needed to withstand the forces that will be applied to the branch and it will have a much greater chance of failure. Always remember, trees break first at defects!!
