Shrub Trimming for Healthy Growth

Regular trimming improves shrub health, appearance, and airflow while preventing overgrowth and disease.
Spring Trimming

Ideal for shaping shrubs before new growth begins, typically in early spring. This promotes vigorous growth and encourages flowering for certain species.

Summer Trimming

Performed during mid to late summer to control size and remove dead or overgrown branches. It can also help improve air circulation.

Fall Trimming

Best for removing dead or diseased branches after the active growing season. It prepares shrubs for winter dormancy and can promote healthy growth in the following season.

Winter Trimming

Suitable for some evergreen and hardy shrubs, typically when the plant is dormant. It minimizes stress and allows for shaping without interfering with flowering.
