Watch: Why Winter Is A Good Time To Prune Trees In Winnipeg
🌳 Winter is one of the best times to prune trees. With leaves gone and pests dormant, pruning is safer, cleaner, and healthier for your trees.
Benefits of Winter Pruning
- ✂️ Better visibility — branch structure is fully exposed
- 🦠 Lower disease risk — fungi and pests are inactive
- 🌱 Stronger spring growth — pruning redirects energy
- 🧤 Safer access — frozen ground supports equipment
