I MESSAGED to my arborist neighbor the other day to just say, “Happy holidays.” And at the end of my note, I also said this: “See you soon.” Winter may be the quiet season up North here in the garden in general, but it’s when a lot of the pruning work gets done. Arborist Basil Camu of Leaf & Limb tree-care company in Raleigh, N.C., helped me map out a tree care to-do list for the season, including winter pruning and other tasks. Basil is co-founder of Leaf & Limb, and author of the book “From Wasteland to Wonder: Easy Ways We Can Help Heal Earth in the Sub/Urban Landscape” (affiliate link). Leaf & Limb is a very different kind of tree service that doesn’t cut down trees, but instead focuses on tree care through all phases of the plant’s life, emphasizing smart pruning, soil care, and more.
