Project Overview: ArborActive helped homeowners in Webster, MA with Ornamental Tree and Shrub Pruning of their mature front landscape.

Project Details: Trees and shrubs can easily outgrow their space, especially around foundations and in island beds. Regular pruning helps to preserve these plants and help to maintain their size. Pruning by a skilled arborist helps to maintain plant health and correct and improve form as the plants grow. While shearing may have a place in formal hedged an topiary planting, don’t let those shears hit your trees and shrubs as the can lead to lack of air and light penetration, limited internal growth, and create an environment that favor insect and disease pests.
