Pruning Japanese Maple
by Jim
Japanese Maples can and should be trimmed each year. The best time is when they are dormant in the winter, or very early spring! (Like right now in the U.S.) The main idea is to prune limbs, not shear them. Any time limbs cross over or are too low to the ground they should be pruned. This is a tree and the bottom 18 inches to two feet should be one single bare trunk. Chas Hendricksen Ask The Landscaper
