よくある質問
The ideal window for pruning most trees is mid-to-late February. This period is considered the 'sweet spot' because the sap is beginning to rise and buds are starting to swell. Pruning during this time allows the tree to heal quickly and efficiently direct its energy toward new growth as the weather warms up.
Pruning too early during a deep freeze can cause significant trouble for your trees. If you prune while it is still freezing, you risk causing cold damage to the new branches and leaves that the pruning process triggers. It is best to wait until the late winter window to ensure the tree is primed for recovery.
Timing is critical because it dictates how a tree manages its energy. Pruning in late winter, just before leafing out, helps the tree heal fast. However, if you wait until the tree has already leafed out, you miss the optimal window where the tree can most effectively direct its energy toward new growth.
