What's the difference between pruning and trimming?

Trimming generally refers to shaping and light maintenance; pruning is a more deliberate, structural practice aimed at long-term tree health and safety.

When is the best time to prune trees in Florida?

Late winter into early spring works for most species, before new growth begins. Storm-damaged limbs should be pruned as soon as it's safe regardless of season.

Can pruning save a storm-damaged tree?

Often yes — corrective pruning after wind damage can remove hazardous limbs while preserving a healthy tree, avoiding full removal.

Do young trees really need pruning?

Yes — the first few years determine a tree's mature structure. Formative pruning now prevents costly corrective work or removal in 15–20 years.
