Apple tree pruning work generally involves selectively removing or trimming branches to improve the tree's structure, promote healthy growth, and enhance fruit production. The process may include thinning out crowded branches, cutting back overgrown or damaged limbs, and shaping the tree to prevent disease and ensure safety. When evaluating requests, details such as the age and size of the tree, specific pruning goals, current health status, and access conditions are helpful to determine the scope, tools needed, and appropriate timing for the work.
