Why Proper Pruning Matters

Pruning isn't just about making plants look neat. It's about removing dead wood that can harbor pests, opening up canopies for better air circulation, and encouraging new growth in the right places. Different plants need different pruning techniques and timing. Prune too early or too late in the season, and you risk damaging the plant or reducing flowering.

We know when and how to prune each type of tree and shrub. For example, spring-blooming shrubs should be pruned right after flowering, while summer bloomers get trimmed in late winter. Fruit trees need careful shaping to improve yield, and ornamental trees benefit from thinning to reduce wind resistance and prevent storm damage.

Overgrown shrubs can also block views, crowd walkways, or scrape against your house. We trim them back to a manageable size while maintaining their natural shape. Regular pruning keeps plants healthy, attractive, and under control without the need for drastic cuts later.

Common Tree and Shrub Issues in La Mirada

Our dry climate and occasional heat waves stress plants, making them more susceptible to pests and diseases. We frequently see issues like spider mites on shrubs, scale on citrus trees, and root rot from poor drainage or overwatering. Early detection and treatment prevent minor problems from becoming major headaches.

Native and drought-tolerant plants generally do well here with minimal care, but even hardy species benefit from periodic fertilization and pruning. If you've invested in professional landscape design, keeping your trees and shrubs healthy ensures your investment pays off for years to come.
