Aesthetics and health: Trimming trees is about aesthetics and health. I am about to "FIX" 12 trees on a property. Every tree has congested areas, dead limbs, fungus, sometimes they have root ball issues or another tree is blocking their sun. They might have environmental changes that are stressing them.
A tree gives energy to four things: 1) Growth, 2) Reproduction, 3) Maintenance (how much green it produces and how much it GETS RID OF. . .itself), 4) Bug and disease defense.
By adjusting #3 above, by helping a tree perform its maintenance. . . you leave extra energy (for the tree) to deploy its natural bug and disease defense system (via saps, anti-bug output, etc.)
We have mastered this process at ORGANIC TREE SERVICES.
