Pollarding (tree pruning) – a rare and accuracy tree lopping & tree removal Birkdale approach
Initially recognize what this technique is as there are countless forms of poor tree pruning called pollarding (tree pruning), which is merely not the instance, they are topping or tree lopping and covered later.
Also it‘s important you recognize the varieties that it uses too, not all trees can take it. Generally the varieties are deciduous (decrease leaves for wintertime) and because pollarding (tree pruning) removes all growth it’s excellent to have a types that at the very least has actually become familiar with being defoliated or the tree lopping. These deciduous trees keep energy for the springtime burst of leaves and shoots so they are better able to recover from a 100% prune. A few of the appropriate varieties are willow, lime, ash, area maple, holly, hornbeam, oak, plane and beech. See something acquainted? You don’t grow those up right here! We remain in a subtropical setting not temperate.
Pollarding (tree pruning) is also commenced on young trees, it’s not what you do to a mature tree. It’s a typical technique to start pollarding (tree pruning) at stem diameters of 75mm to 100mm.
Pollarding (tree pruning) is the removal of all stems back to their point of beginning, the pollard head. You do not remove any collars or pollard heads, you cut just outside them. New stems grow from the pollard head. The trees have to have this repeated every year or two. The original reason for this pruning was to keep a routine supply of timber and fodder every year from the same trees and to also include the dimension and type of trees. Correctly done to the right varieties does not appear to lower the life expectancy providing it started at a very early age.
The pollard heads are extremely tough (woundwood) and also loaded with energy as a storage space point just near the wound for support and to supply brand-new growth. Degeneration hardly ever breakthroughs much past the pollard head.
You’ll see some efforts at this however I can honestly say the last time I saw a correct pollarded tree in real life was some twenty years back in Adelaide, it was a London Airplane tree. Some individuals try to exercise this on their Crepe Myrtles however they don’t have the strategy right nor do they typically start it on a young specimen. My recommendations is keep clear of it and leave it to a specialist
