- Waiting too long to prune Arborvitaes that have reached a roof line can drastically jeopardize their natural form if taking off too much growth. This video looks at pruning back three Holmstrup Arborvitaes before it’s too late.

WOW! Thank you for this video! The arborvitae in our front yard has gotten so tall and we haven't known how to cut/trim it back. You're a great instructor! Your arborvitae look so natural after you cut them back.😃
Wow, you did a fabulous pruning on those shrubs - they look so much better. You're really good at what you do; and teaches us well.
After your example, I went outside and cut off a few inches of my mini arbs which were getting too tall. Thanks much.
I've got my first set of shears arriving tomorrow. Time for light pruning on some Forever Goldie's & Green Arbs!
Awesome thank you so much I'm cutting mine this week
Excellent instructions, thank you.
Help?! Last year I edged my patio with Holmstrup Arborvitae. According to the tag 4’-5’ tall and 1.5’-2’ wide. Yours are much bigger than the information on my plant tag! Are yours larger than normal or is the tag that far off? Do you think I can keep them pruned to 4’-5’? Or have I made a terrible mistake and maybe I should dig them up while I still can? Zone 4 MN if that makes a difference.
You cut the point off the middle tree. Will that centre leader grow back?
Yes, if you allow it to grow taller again a leader will form. It is referred to as apical dominance.
I have to put a tunnel between two arbs that have grown together. Any advice ?
That’s a tough one. It sounds like you’ll be pruning deep into each plant and exposing branches with no leaves. Perhaps a small Arbor placed in the tunnel/walkway would mask the “dead” look.
