This is part three of a three-part dormant season pruning series. Catch up on part two, what are the rules of pruning and watch part one, why do i need to prune. Tree pruning, trimming, or cutting is an ongoing process throughout the life of your tree. After selecting the right tree and carefully planting it, early pruning is the most important thing you can do for a young tree. Pruning during dormancy is the most common practice. It results in a vigorous burst of new growth in the spring. It is usually best to wait until the coldest part of winter has passed.

Living in trees of montclair i have dealt with a couple other arborist in the area, and what i can say about the urban arborist is that these guys are really stewards of the trees.

This article is about forests in cities. For general use of trees in cities, see urban forestry. An urban forest is a forest , or a collection of trees, that grow within a city , town or a suburb. In a wider sense, it may include any kind of woody plant vegetation growing in and around human settlements. As opposed to a forest park, whose ecosystems are also inherited from wilderness leftovers, urban forests often lack amenities like public bathrooms, paved paths, or sometimes clear borders which are distinct features of parks. Care and management of urban forests is called urban forestry. Urban forests can be privately and publicly owned. Some municipal forests may be located outside of the town or city to which they belong.

Update: didn't know how to put an update on this so i am just editing my previous update: yesterday the receptionist and the owner both reached out to me. There was a misunderstanding between the receptionist and myself. She wasn't annoyed she just wanted to get the arborist back to the house to talk to us before he was too far away. She was really nice when she left me a voice mail and very sincere and apologized for the mixup. I was then contacted by the owner who was genuinely concerned with what happened and wanted to work with me on addressing the issue. I said ok. He came out to the house with craig and jake (who wasn't present the first visit). When josef the owner came out he number one, took time to talk to my mom and i to see what we wanted and gave suggestions. He was very nice, professional and spent time not only explaining everything step by step and allowing us make any changes we wanted but i gotta say they spent about 4 hours at my moms working on making sure that the tree was completely secure. Normally i wouldn't change my star rating especially what happened the first time with the first guy but i have never been more pleased at how josef, jake and craig handled the situation. In my opinion what started off rough ended not only very well but exceeded our expectations. They were able to make my mom really happy and really put the time and effort into making the tree stable. As a result of such great professional service i now feel comfortable at using them again for future projects and will recommend them to anyone else. Thanks again to josef, jake and craig for all the great work and hours you guys spent working on security the tree. Unfortunately its too dark at this time to post updated pictures but i will take some tomorrow and post them.

I was under the impression that i was buying the edition from the picture (second newest edition) but they shipped me the first edition (gold cover)! the book is ok, but holds a lot of outdated information. I'm already half way through my semester, and i'm pretty pissed that i can't hardly use this book in my arboriculture class (i also got it almost more than a month after classes started). I'm not happy at all. You're better off buying the books straight from the isa (international society of arborists) website.
