The Difference Between Pruning & Trimming
While pruning and trimming are often used interchangeably, they aren’t exactly the same technique.
Pruning typically involves removing dead, weak, or diseased branches, promoting better growth, and reducing potential risk. It’s also a tree care method used to increase airflow and light penetration, allowing you to better guide the structure over time.
On the other hand, trimming is focused on shaping and maintaining a clean, organized look. It’s more often used on shrubs and hedges, as well as trees and plants that need regular attention to stay neat and balanced.
