January is the perfect time to give your fruit trees the attention they need for a healthy, productive year ahead. At Melanie Kerr Garden Services, we offer expert fruit tree pruning and winter garden care across Bristol, helping your trees thrive and produce abundant crops when spring and summer arrive.

Why Prune Fruit Trees in Winter?
Winter pruning (especially in January) is essential for shaping your trees, removing dead or diseased wood, and encouraging strong new growth. When trees are dormant, it’s easier to see the structure and make precise cuts that support long-term health and better fruiting.
Our Bristol-based garden team specialises in:
Apple and pear tree pruning
Gooseberry, currant, and soft fruit bush care
Stone fruit health checks (plums, cherries, etc.)
Removal of dead or crossing branches
General garden tidy-ups around fruit areas
Whether your trees need light maintenance or a full reshape, we’ll ensure they’re pruned correctly for maximum fruit yield and a balanced structure.
