Hello,

I’m an Aesthetic Pruner based in El Cerrito, California.

Aesthetic pruning combines horticulturally appropriate techniques with an eye for accentuating the essence of each plant.

I nurture my clients’ gardens into serene and appealing places by aesthetically pruning their small trees, shrubs, and vines.

How I can help you

I can prune just one plant or everything in a garden. 

  • Have a tree that needs to be rehabilitated/renovated after neglect?

  • Maybe one that needs to be smaller again or less dense because it’s taking up too much space, is too tall, or not letting sunlight through?

  • Have a bougainvillea, climbing rose, or wisteria that needs to be pruned and trained up a trellis?

  • Have you just planted a young tree and want it to grow with a strong and pleasing structure?

  • Have a fruit tree you want to keep short so you can easily reach the fruit, or that needs seasonal attention to optimize fruit production and prevent branch breakage?

  • Have a Japanese maple that could be more airy and have more light trickle through?

If you like, I can set aside ornamental cuttings for you to put in a vase and enjoy inside.
