Q: Should I coat the cut branches on a topped tree?

• <div><p>You can find pruning paints and sealants for trees, but you shouldn&rsquo;t use them on a topped tree. Coatings like these often inhibit the tree&rsquo;s healing process. An important exception is if there are dangerous fungi nearby that the tree is particularly vulnerable to, like oaks and <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/3-common-tree-diseases.htm">oak wilt</a>. Sealing cuts can help prevent fungi from taking root.</p></div>

Q: Can you trim just one side of a tree?

• <div><p>You can trim just one side of the tree, especially when that side is growing near something like a power line or a home. Pros will carefully trim the tree back until it is safe from that structure. While this is common, it also needs to be done with the utmost care, as pruning or trimming away at one side of the tree may make it structurally unsound. This instance is yet another where hiring a pro is wise, especially if power lines are involved.</p></div>

Q: What is the difference between tree trimming and tree pruning?

• <div><p>Although the terms <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/pruning-vs-trimming.htm">tree trimming and tree pruning</a> are used interchangeably, they are very different types of tree maintenance. Tree trimming involves enhancing the appearance of your tree by removing unruly branches, providing your tree with ample sunlight and nutrients and prevents unsightly overgrowth. </p><p>Tree pruning helps keep your trees disease-free. This process removes unhealthy growths, dead branches, and other unhealthy parts of the tree. It&rsquo;s more common for deciduous and ornamental trees but not so common for evergreen trees. To determine which method you need, discuss it with a tree trimming specialist.</p></div>

Q: Do trees go into shock when transplanted?

• <div><p>Trees aren't big fans of moving, and they do go into shock during a transplant. Although most carefully thought-out tree transplants see the tree recover from the shock just fine, there is always a risk of having an unsuccessful move. Proper preparation, timing, and diligent aftercare are crucial to minimize the risks when transplanting a tree.</p></div>

Q: Does Dutch elm disease affect other trees?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s not as common for Dutch elm disease to affect other types of trees, especially if the surrounding trees aren&rsquo;t elms. However, it is possible for DED to spread to other trees, particularly in northern states, like Minnesota. In fact, it&rsquo;s a good idea to use geography to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/tree-and-wood-identification-your-backyard.htm">identify wood</a> and determine which types of trees are in your yard. </p><p>Unfortunately, the complex and shallow root system of elm trees makes surrounding elm trees particularly vulnerable to DED. Early discovery is key!</p></div>
