This class will show you how, what and when to do specific types of tree pruning. Structural pruning of young trees is covered, as well as mature tree pruning techniques including crown cleaning, crown thinning, crown raising and crown reduction. Pruning cycles, pruning doses, and seasonal timing are explained. Mal-pruning is defined (tree topping, lion’s tailing, over thinning), and rehabilitative pruning techniques are shown.

This class will be recorded and available for viewing by registrants for 2 weeks following the class date.
