Wikipedia
pruner
Pruning shears, also called hand pruners (in American English), or secateurs (in British English), are a type of scissors use for plants. They are strong enough to prune hard branches of trees and shrubs, sometimes up to two centimetres thick. They are used in gardening, arboriculture, plant nursery works, farming, flower arranging, and nature conservation, where fine-scale habitat management is required. Loppers are a larger, two-handed, long-handled version for branches thicker than pruning shears can cut.

pruner
A pruner is a tool or equipment used in gardening or landscaping to cut back, trim, or remove dead or overgrown branches or stems, especially to increase fruitfulness and growth. A pruner can also refer to a person who is involved in the job of pruning plants. The act of cutting or trimming branches or leaves allows the plant to grow more vibrantly by focusing the nutrients towards healthier parts of the plant.
