Learn the tools, methods, and practical insights common to reputable tree care professionals. This two hour course of the Natural Pruning approach both describes general parameters governing the biology of tree growth and offers research-based techniques non-professional enthusiasts might implement to optimize tree development.
Learning Objectives:
- What tools are best for quality tree care?
- What types of cuts do arborists use and what outcomes might be expected from each?
- What common defects & practices put a tree at risk & what can be done to mitigate these risks?
- What is to be done to maximize shade in a changing climate?
