Tree & Shrub Care

Crape Myrtle Pruning for Frisco Homes and Businesses

Crape myrtles are everywhere in Frisco, and many get topped every winter, leaving ugly knuckles and weak shoots. That practice, often called crape murder, is not needed for blooms.

Proper pruning removes suckers, crossing branches, seed heads within reach and inward-growing limbs, keeping the natural vase shape and smooth bark that make crape myrtles attractive.
