The ideal pruning window for most trees in Vancouver is during dormancy, from late fall through early spring (November–March). However, dead or hazardous branches can and should be removed any time of year. Flowering trees are best pruned right after they bloom. Our arborists assess each species individually to recommend optimal timing.
