What’s the best time of the year to prune shade trees?

• <div><p>Deciduous shade trees (the type of trees whose leaves fall off in autumn) need to be pruned in late winter—between February and March. That’s because it’s easier to find and remove sick or dead branches when no leaves are present. And wounds close and heal faster in colder temperatures so pruning them at this time also makes them less prone to infection.</p></div>

Am I responsible if a dead tree falls on power lines?

• <div><p>Homeowners are usually not responsible for <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/if-tree-falls-power-line-who-responsible.htm">trees that fall on power lines</a>. Power companies usually have utility easements around power lines, which give them the responsibility to maintain any trees within about 15 to 20 feet of the lines.</p></div>

Can you grow a grafted tree from a branch?

• <div><p>A grafted tree is a tree grown by combining two trees. It takes expertise. Branches from grafted trees don’t grow strong roots. Save yourself the time and frustration by having an arborist help you with this advanced project. </p><p>You can often tell if a tree is grafted because it will have a noticeable line. Above the line, the bark will look different than it does below the line. It’s most common with fruit trees.</p></div>

Q: What are the benefits of professional tree trimming?

• <div><p>It enhances property aesthetics, improves tree health, and prevents safety hazards.</p></div>

Q: How much can you trim a tree without killing it?

• <div><p>Generally, you&rsquo;ll want to avoid pruning more than 25% of the tree&rsquo;s canopy at one time. While pruning your tree is important, it&rsquo;s possible to do it too often or to go too far. Again, this is why hiring a tree trimming pro to do the work is wise. However, if you do decide to DIY, going slow and trimming gradually is the name of the game.</p></div>
