Providing TLC to a tree like thinning the canopy trimming the branches getting rid of shooters and suckers pruning up low hanging branches can be like taking your trees to the spa.  Keeping the canopy thinned out is a sure fire way to ensure that in a wind or ice storm your maples and pear tree will not split and lose branches. Every season shooters will grow up from the inside canopy and clutter the canopy of the tree making it thick and very wind resistant.  The wind resistance and weight of all these unwanted branches are exactly what causes pear and maple trees to split in half in ice and wind storms and lose anywhere from a few branches to half of its canopy or even causing them to fully blow down. Shooters are like weeds up in the trees canopy, taking care of these can be life saving for your tree.         

Limbing up and pruning low lying branches up to 6 feet or more can be the difference between from someone losing an eye.  It is very beneficial but it’s not very easy to take on pruning a tree the correct and healthy way.  We cut branches to look neat and clean but still very natural.  We don’t leave stubby branches without leaves - it’s either all of the branch back to the trunk or we only take the shooters and some length off the end of the branches cutting back to a node (the point in which the tree will sprout more branches and leaves from).  This is the healthiest way to trim up branches.
