If you’ll be having a big party or wedding and want your property to look good for the event, schedule clean-up and any trimming work a couple of weeks before the event. That gives white eyes (fresh pruning cuts) a chance to age so they won’t look like the groom with the haircut he got yesterday ;-). The same is true for tree removals. Remove them in advance so that the surrounding trees and plants have time to fill in and make the area look more natural.
