Pruning your hedges is essential for maintaining their aesthetic appeal and promoting a healthy life span. Regular trimming is vital to maintaining the desired shape and size, ensuring your landscape remains neat and visually pleasing.
More than just controlling size, pruning encourages healthy growth and stimulates the production of new shoots, which thickens the hedge and enhances its vibrancy.
Additionally, proper pruning promotes better airflow and sunlight penetration throughout the hedge. Which is crucial for preventing disease or fungus growth and safeguarding the overall health of the plants.
This increased exposure to air and light also minimizes the risk of pests and diseases by creating less favourable conditions for their development. Regular hedge pruning is not just a maintenance task—it’s a vital practice for fostering a robust and flourishing garden.

On Vancouver Island, the best time to conduct trimming activities is generally during the late winter to early spring, taking advantage of our temperate climate before the growth season begins. The timing can vary slightly across different areas of the island due to microclimatic differences; for example, Victoria often experiences warmer early springs than Campbell River, allowing for earlier trimming. Given our region’s higher rainfall, it’s also crucial to choose dry days for trimming to prevent the spread of diseases and ensure clean cuts that heal well, promoting healthy growth throughout the season.
