Structural Pruning Tip for Trees: Perform cuts that influence the future mature form of a tree. Typically, a tree with 1 central dominant trunk is stronger than one with multiple/codominant trunks. The selected leader should be left to grow, & codominant ones reduced in height.

Bonus Tree Care Tip: Thin out branches that are clustered together on the trunk for even spacing & a more balanced canopy.
