How often should you trim or prune a tree?
There is no one definitive answer to this question as it depends on a variety of factors, including the tree’s age, size, and location. Generally speaking, though, you should trim younger trees every 2-3 years and more mature trees every 3-5 years.
According to Utah State University, you should really only be pruning your tree if it fits within 3 different categories. Those categories are Health, Hazard and Form.
- Health – Are you wanting to prune the tree to help the overall health of the tree and those around it?
- Hazard – Are you pruning it because there are dead or decaying branches to overhang sidewalks or close to power lines?
- Form – Are you trying to get the a different shape and look out of the tree?
