As the leaves start to change color, it’s time to start taking care of your trees and pruning them before winter comes. Here are some tips for fall pruning:
- Best Time to Prune: The best time to prune your trees in late fall after the leaves have dropped, but before the first freeze.
- Pruning Cuts: Use clean cuts at a 45 degree angle just above a bud or lateral branch.
- Avoid Over-Pruning: Removing too many branches can stress the tree and stunt growth.
