Fortitude Tree Services is an experienced tree-care company. We provide certified tree pruning and tree trimming in Canberra.
One of the main goals of tree pruning in Canberra is to create an optimal trunk and branch structure. Pruning, the selective removal of certain branches or limbs, is a crucial horticultural practice that shapes the overall structure and growth pattern of a tree or shrub. The objective is to establish a sturdy, well-balanced trunk that can effectively support the weight and distribution of the upper branches. In some cases, unsafe trees may need complete tree removal. Objectives of pruning can also include:
Pruning to develop single dominant trunks and reduce codominance. Removal of any weak or poor branch structure. Structural pruning is a vital horticultural technique used to maintain the overall health and aesthetics of various plants and trees. At its core, structural pruning involves the lopping of specific branches, limbs, or other growth to shape the plant's structure and encourage optimal development. This process goes far beyond simply trimming back overgrowth - it requires a deep understanding of plant biology and growth patterns to identify the precise branches that should be removed.
Reduction tree pruning in Canberra is a specialised Arboricultural technique used to carefully manage and maintain the health and structure of trees within urban environments. Unlike traditional pruning methods that focus solely on removing branches, reduction pruning takes a more holistic approach, selectively thinning and shortening the tree's limbs to achieve a desired size and shape.
Deadwood removal is an essential task for maintaining the health and longevity of trees. This process involves the identification and removal of any branches, limbs, or sections of the tree trunk that have died and become dry, brittle, and devoid of life.
We can carry out regularhedge trimming on small medium and large hedges. We have all the machinery, tools and knowhow to trim very large hedges with relatively poor access.
Target tree pruning is a specialised technique used by professional arborists and landscapers to carefully shape and maintain the growth of trees. Rather than indiscriminately hacking away at branches, target pruning involves a meticulous, strategic approach that focuses on selectively removing specific limbs and foliage. The goal is to enhance the overall health, structure, and aesthetic appeal of the tree, while also mitigating any potential safety hazards.
All pruning is carried out within the scope of the Australian Standard for Pruning Amenity Trees (AS4373) and the ACT Tree Protection Act 2023.
