Tree pruning completed on schedule (restorative maintenance)

YESTERDAY, our arborist, Al Gwilliam of Al’s Landscaping, pruned the street tree on Main Street that shades our front steps. 

Almost done!
(As usual, click/tap on an image to enlarge it.)

Below the jump, this post displays the two “before” and “after” photos that Al was kind enough to take.

This work was included in our annual maintenance budget. It is the culmination of a two-year plan to restore the tree to good condition.

Going forward, such pruning should be done again in about two years, and biennially thereafter.
