Prune Ornamental Trees Before Sap Flows This Spring
J T Bode forestry extension specialist at State College advises pruning before sap flow begins to shape trees and remove dead wood. Thin crown ends rather than trunk, keep crowns intact, and raise lower branches for clearance. Choose permanent, stocky trees and avoid short lived species like poplar and soft maples. Oak, hard maple, white elm, and sycamore recommended. Plant streets by city ordinance to standardize tree types.
