Etymology
Definition of the verb To Prune
Derived from the Latin verb Put-are, meaning to clear.
Primarily, we remember that there are different types of pruning that must be performed, depending on the needs of the tree itself, using distinct methods.Pruning with Tree Climbing is performed by at least two qualified operators and requires rope access to the tree. One of the pair climbs the tree to perform the pruning while the other stays on the ground to handle the offcuts from the branches, coordinating operations and ready to intervene in the event of an emergency at height (a legal requirement). Pruning is a highly technical and sophisticated work which requires knowledge and experience. It should only be performed by trained and experienced professionals.
