  Proper  pruning  for young tree development is of paramount importance to ensure the healthy growth, structural integrity, and long-term vitality of trees. Early pruning sets the foundation for a tree’s form, health, and overall appearance as it matures. Here’s why  proper pruning  during the early stages of a tree’s life is so crucial: 1.
