Seattle Pruning to Prevent Breakage

While this is great for your garden’s appearance, it can also lead to overgrown branches that are prone to breakage, especially during storms or heavy winds. Pruning your plants and trees is a proactive solution that can prevent damage, enhance curb appeal, and promote healthier growth. With proper pruning, you will not only maintain a beautiful landscape but also ensure safety and reduce long-term maintenance efforts.
