MAN I am so glad I found these presentations. Learninghere at 10x the rate of other videos that are tree-specific or more geared towards showing actually cutting instead of sharing foundational in formation of the skill set, which is what you really need to learn a skill.
Thank you may have saved two of what could have become tragically pruned weeping cherries! Though I’m total normie amateur and don’t quite understand where I WOULD prune that wonky branch, AT LEAST I know NOT to prune that wonky branch! Seldom do I learn a lesson BEFORE I make a mistake! Thank you!
I just realized there was battle against bad pruning 10 years ago, and 20 years, and it is still a thing. And probably it was already going some hundreds years. Makes me wonder, how is the progress (in USA)?
Thank you so much for this series! Very eye-opening. I was wondering about removal of dead branches - if they're not large enough to cause problems when they fall on their own, is it better to let nature deal with it? I ask because it seems that pruning them exposes a fresh wound unnecessarily (assuming I trim down to the collar). Alternatively I could prune at the edge where the dead wood meets the living but this typically leaves a stub - what would be your advice?

This is such a helpful video series. I've absolutely fallen in love with arbory.
Lol. Love your commentary.
Thank you for your chapters on pruning. It is good to have something more indepth than what is usually available on youtube.
Wow, this is so helpful. I wish I had watched this before I pruned my dogwood. I have probably overpruned it 😩😩😩.

Great advice!
So helpful. Just bought cherry and pear trees.
Is a Kentucky Yellowwood considered deciduous or flowering?
