Awesome! Blue Sky did an outstanding job removing our nasty old shrubs in front and installing flat stone walls for new beds and installed many different colorful flowering plants. A lot of work to remove those shrubs and shape all those flat stones to put in place. Also installed underground drainage system for the downspouts on each edge of the house. Will continue to use their many available services.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Why is pruning important for ornamental trees?

Pruning is important for ornamental trees to maintain their size, health, shape, and vitality. It eliminates dead branches, encourages new growth, and promotes the tree's natural structure.

Pruning also helps keep trees and landscapes healthy by promoting robust fruit and bloom output. Regular pruning also reduces the risk of storm-related branch damage to buildings and ensures the safety of your loved ones by preventing branches from falling in high-traffic areas.

2. What are the different pruning techniques for ornamental trees?

There are several pruning techniques for ornamental trees:

  • Cleaning involves removing dead leaves, weakly attached leaves, and diseased and poor branches from the tree's crown.
  • Thinning is selectively removing branches to enhance the structure, promote light and airflow, and relieve pressure on heavy limbs.
  • Raising involves cutting off a tree's lower branches to provide clearance for structures, cars, people, and sight lines.
  • Reduction reduces a tree's height or spread, often to clear undergrowth from electric lines while maintaining the tree's shape and structural integrity.

3. How does tree removal benefit homeowners?

Tree removal offers several benefits to homeowners, such as:

  • Reduces the risk of trees falling, especially dead trees that may be structurally compromised.
  • Helps prevent structural hazards and disasters by removing leaning or unstable trees that could cause physical dangers or damage to properties, animals, and electrical wires.
  • Prevents damage to foundations and driveways caused by tree roots, which can crack concrete structures. Removing trees that pose such risks can help protect your property.

4. Why is regular shrub pruning important for hedges and perennials?
