Optimal Timing for Shrub Trimming
Shrub trimmings are a vital part of maintaining healthy and attractive landscaping. Proper timing ensures plants remain vigorous and aesthetically pleasing. The optimal period for trimming varies depending on shrub type and regional climate conditions, but generally, late winter to early spring and late summer are considered ideal.
Pruning in early spring promotes new growth and helps shape shrubs before the active growing season begins.
Late summer trimming controls size and encourages bushier growth, especially for flowering shrubs.
Light trimming in fall prepares plants for winter, removing dead or diseased branches.
Trimming during cold months can damage plants and stimulate unwanted growth that may not survive winter.
