Trees are a valuable asset to nature, but their value is often overlooked in urban settings. The six-day, 18 session virtual Urban Tree Conference for industry professionals and avid gardeners will cover all aspects of urban tree planning, implementation and management.
From a basic, easy cut with a well-defined branch collar to challenging branch angles or tiny twigs, Horticulture Educator Ryan Pankau will cover everything you need to know for a successful pruning project for trees and shrubs.
