Regular or heavy pruning is included in our range of tree care services, and is the most frequently used at Emondage Saint-Jerome. But are you aware that heavy and regular pruning are not quite the same thing? The approaches adopted by the two are almost opposites, although in both cases it is a matter of cutting.
First of all, let's take the pruning, the regular one. This method is carried out by taking care that the tree feels good in its bark. It consists of developing a strategy that is spread over a certain period of time relatively long and varies according to the context. Each of the planned phases is implemented while taking care not to harm the plant. The health of the plant must be preserved. This is why it is important to practice a sustained application posture in this technique. Reflection also occupies a certain place. The arborist will not leave any cut to chance. Each gesture has its meaning.
Arboricultural health comes first. However, it happens that trade-offs with the owners' goals may be essential in certain circumstances. Of course, it remains a question of satisfying your expectations. But these expectations must not be detrimental to the growth of the plant, otherwise it is no longer a question of regular pruning. |
Let us now look at heavy pruning. This is a task that, this time, gives preferential importance to human goals. In other words, these take precedence over the tree's goals, even if it means sacrificing the tree. The gestures that make up heavy pruning are more draconian. It should not be seen as a few unreasonable motives. In fact, it is the opposite. Safety is often at the root of the action, or construction work that would not otherwise take place. This makes it possible to recognize that the reasons for heavy pruning are valid.
To get an accurate picture of what heavy pruning are like, think of Hydro-Quebec's pruning. We can guess that you immediately imagine these trees looking terrible after their passage. But the reason for this drastic treatment is that it is essential to protect the electrical infrastructure.
No one will deny that safety is a serious matter. That is why such results are acceptable in view of the goals pursued. We understand that aesthetic or sanitary principles for plants are outside the radar screen when it comes to heavy pruning.

Heavy pruning or topping, however, can shock the trees. In other words, they are really under attack. Even a plant could perish before the normal term of its species. It is therefore hardly surprising that we recommend that you call a certified arborist before deciding to have a heavy pruning or topping done. You can contact us by calling 579-996-8447. When the time comes, you can share your situation with us and we will consider whether there are other options that may be appropriate.
Regular pruning requires skill. An experienced pruner performs any pruning with the necessary virtuosity. The natural tranquility of the actions involved ensures that a deficient growth path can be gradually straightened out, one small shear stroke at a time. This can be just as effective in preserving your roof as it would be in the case of severe pruning. Except that with pruning, the work is done gently and gradually.
In addition to correcting the angle of thrust, pruning can somehow direct the shade of the branch where you want it. Obviously, not endlessly, as there are natural limits. But if you want your spa to be in the shade, perhaps your specimen's crown should have a spherical silhouette, which turns out to be wider than if you chose a more lanky look. In which case, your spa may well be bathed in daily sunlight, the exact opposite of the impact you were looking for.
Removing unnecessary branches adds strength to a tree-like specimen. It will be more imposing with its well-groomed and healthy green bearing. If you are also the lucky owner of fruit trees, you will notice how much this treatment benefits the harvest. You will be amazed by the size of the harvest.
The wise pruner, by using his dexterity, allows all these positive results. It would be surprising if anyone objected to the maintenance of large plants. It is important to know that each species requires specific care. Our pruners know their business. They will know how to respect the requirements of the trade with their great customary mastery.
