This process must be completed before the growing season arrives. During the growth period of elm trees, they need to be topped and pinched to control plant height. Dense branches, crossed branches and long branches also need to be thinned out in time to allow ventilation and light transmission, increase the extent of the tree crown, improve the ornamental value, and save nutrient loss.
