My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Pruning trees

12 years ago

When is the best time of year to thin out a young Redbud tree?
Also, I have an old Serviceberry tree with a dead branch. Can that be taken off now, or should I wait til Fall or Spring?
Thanks in advance

John
