These are areas where two branches meet but don’t form a strong connection, making them susceptible to breakage during storms or high winds. The solution? Pruning these weak unions effectively to promote healthier growth and enhance the overall structure of your trees. Not only does this improve curb appeal, but it also adds safety, eco-friendliness, and low maintenance to your landscaping.
