Is it OK to prune during winter?

Winter is actually a good time to prune trees as most plants go dormant, meaning that they are no longer actively growing during this period. Here are a few reasons to prune during this time of the season:

  • Dormant pruning causes less stress or shock to the trees as it gives trees time to heal from the pruning cuts allowing for better recovery and hearty new growth in the spring
  • Pruning when all the leaves have fallen away it makes it easier to see the true tree shape and the best places to prune to improve the health and safety of the trees
  • Pruning in the winter reduces susceptibility to, and the spread of, disease since parasites, insects and bacteria are also dormant making it less likely that disease is transmitted during pruning

Have a tree that needs cabling and bracing this winter?

If your trees have been compromised over the years from the weight of snow and ice, high winds or even just natural causes, there are strategies we can use to support trees if removal isn’t an option. For example, tree cabling and bracing is a good solution.

Tree cabling and bracing is a preventative technique to reduce stress, prevent movement between limbs, and to generally support trees with poor or weak structure. Weak limbs and structure are not always obvious though, so it’s likely best to call in the professionals.

As local arborists, we have the ability to assess your trees to identify weak spots and examine bark and co-dominant stems which could be signs that your tree needs cabling and bracing.

At Aerial Tree Services we work year-round. Our goal is to help strengthen your tree’s structure and improve it’s longevity to reduce the safety risk of falling limbs or fallen trees. If you have a tree that looks suspicious, give us a shout at 403-293-3416. We’d be happy to provide a FREE assessment and estimate.
