The Negative Impacts of Improperly Pruned & Trimmed Landscaping

Poor pruning practices can cause a host of issues for your plants and trees. Without proper maintenance, your landscape may suffer from:

Damaged limbs: Overgrown branches often become weak and brittle. High winds and heavy snowfall may cause these branches to break, posing hazards to the people and property below.
Disease and pest infestations: Dead or overcrowded branches are breeding grounds for pests and pathogens. Fungi can spread rapidly through unpruned plants, while insects find plenty of hiding spots in dense, untamed foliage.
Reduced air and sunlight: Thick, untrimmed canopies block sunlight from reaching lower branches and nearby plants. Limited air circulation also increases the risk of mold, which thrives in moist, shaded environments.
Stunted growth: Improper pruning techniques, like cutting too close to the trunk or removing too much foliage, can shock plants and cause them to grow unevenly or die.
Cluttered, unkempt appearance: Overgrown trees, hedges, and shrubs can quickly make the most beautiful home look neglected. Poorly maintained landscaping reduces curb appeal and diminishes property value.

Pruning and trimming aren’t just about proper technique — you must also get the timing right. In general, dormant pruning in late winter to early spring is ideal for most trees and shrubs, while the recommendation for flowering plants is to prune immediately after blooming.
