Our first post included a birch pruning and removal in Prince George, and last week I went back to check in on how the tree we pruned was doing. It overlooks a beautiful backyard garden and a little free library beside the sidewalk, and it’s nestled up against a quaint barn-shaped treehouse.
When pruning the tree, Allan removed dead and twisted branches, clearing out the centre of the tree. This kind of selective pruning can increase airflow to the inner leaves of the tree and encourage it to grow foliage closer to the trunk instead of only on the outside of a big ball of crossed, bare branches, overall contributing to a more attractive and healthier tree.




It’s gratifying to go back and see the result of our work!
