The best time to trim tree, where
large limbs are to be removed, is in
June. A wound then made will heal
much more rapidly than at any other
season of the year. That is the best
time also for thinning out the top,
since the removal of small branches
then will not induce others to come
in their place. Besides one can bet
ter determine Mt that season what
branches should be removed.
