It is arguable that trees are the most valuable landscape element. Care for them and your trees will live a long healthy life. “Proper pruning helps trees live longer,” said Mike Maddox, Horticulture Educator University of Wisconsin. “On the other hand, poor pruning practices, such as topping, make trees less attractive, more prone to pest and weather problems and can actually shorten their life span.”
Finally, there is one cardinal rule: never leave a stub, and never make a flush cut. Stubs are unattractive, do not heal over and can result in decay moving into the tree. Cuts made flush to the trunk result in large wounds that take a long time to close. Make pruning cuts just beyond the branch collar.
