Tree Pruning Chesterfield – What Is the Best Time of Year to Prune Trees?

Timing depends mainly on species, though a few general principles apply to most garden trees.

General guidance

• Many deciduous trees are best pruned while dormant, in late autumn or winter
• Some species bleed heavily if pruned in early spring
• Flowering trees are often pruned just after flowering

Urgent, safety-related pruning doesn't wait for the ideal season — a hanging branch needs addressing as soon as it's noticed.
