noun
An arborist tree pruning term, indicating the point at which a branch would be reduced to achieve the desired pruning goal. When reducing the height of a tree, care must be taken to prune a limb to the point at which it will still be nurtured by the tree, while also trying to meet a reduction objective. Finding the balance between the pruning objective and the point at which the tree will tolerate the cut is referred to as the hopepoint. In other words, the arborist hopes that the pruned branch will survive and continue to grow and contribute to the canopy.
