What tools do I need for pruning?

Pruning tools

Three tools are used for pruning: pruning shears for removing shoots and small stems; long handled lopping shears for larger stems; and a pruning saw for large branches. A sharp pruning knife is also a good investment for cutting back soft summer growth and trimming around large wounds. Besides these, only hedge shears will be needed if you have a hedge that is formal and needs shearing.
