Trees should pruned when there is a good and clear reason for doing so. Pruning involves the cutting away of overgrown and unwanted branches, but if the inexperienced gardener is encouraged by the thought, more damage resulsts from doing it unnecessarily than from leaving the tree to grow in its own way.
Pruning also is done to make sure that trees have a desired shape or size. Pruning makes tree healthier. You can cut disease or dead wood. One result of pruning is that an open wound is left on the tree and this provides an easy entry for disease,so there is a period when the tree is at risk. It should be goal of every gardener to reduce that risk as much as possible.
Pruning is usually done in winter, for then you can see the shape of the tree clearly without interference from the leaves and it is, too, very unlikely that the cuts you make will bleed, and therefore painting will not be necessary.
