Pruning and chipping in autumn and winter: why is this the right time?
Why prune in autumn and winter?
1. Plants in dormancy :
During the cold months, trees and shrubs are dormant. Pruning causes less sap loss and wounds heal more quickly in spring. This reduces the risk of infection and promotes healthy growth.
2. Better visibility and accessibility :
Without foliage, branches and crowns are more visible. This makes pruning clearer and safer, especially when working at height or maintaining avenue trees.
3. Less disruption for the surroundings and users :
