Pruning Orange Trees and Other Citrus Step By Step

First step: You will need handheld pruners to remove dead, diseased or crisscrossing limbs to open the center of the tree. If the branches are two thick and the pruners don’t suffice use a small hand saw.
 Second step: After you carefully remove all the branches described make sure to cleanse your pruning shears with a disinfectant spray to not spread any disease that you may be unaware of.

 Third step: Make sure to clip off any frail or weak thin Branches. This process will cause the branches to grow back thicker and stronger enabling them to hold larger heavier fruit.
