Pollarding (tree pruning) – an uncommon and precision tree lopping & tree removal Lawes method
First understand what this practice is as there are many forms of negative tree pruning called pollarding (tree pruning), which is simply not the instance, they are topping or tree lopping and covered later on.
Likewise it is very important you understand the species that it uses also, not all trees can take it. Normally the species are deciduous (drop leaves for winter months) and because pollarding (tree pruning) eliminates all development it’s excellent to have a types that a minimum of has actually ended up being accustomed to being defoliated or the tree lopping. These deciduous trees store power for the spring burst of leaves and shoots so they are much better able to recover from a 100% prune. A few of the ideal species are willow, lime, ash, area maple, holly, hornbeam, oak, airplane and beech. See something familiar? You do not grow those up here! We‘re in a subtropical atmosphere not temperate.
Pollarding (tree pruning) is likewise begun on young trees, it’s not what you do to a fully grown tree. It’s an usual practice to begin 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 cut off any collars or pollard heads, you cut simply outside them. New stems grow from the pollard head. The trees have to have this repeated annually or two. The original factor for this pruning was to keep a normal supply of timber and fodder every year from the very same trees and to likewise contain the size and form of trees. Properly done to the right species doesn’t appear to reduce the life-span giving it commenced at a very early age.
The pollard heads are really difficult (woundwood) and likewise packed with power as a storage point simply near the wound for defence and to provide brand-new development. Decay hardly ever developments much past the pollard head.
You’ll see some efforts at this yet I can honestly state the last time I saw a proper pollarded tree in real life was some 20 years back in Adelaide, it was a London Airplane tree. Some individuals attempt to exercise this on their Crepe Myrtles yet they do not have the strategy right neither do they normally begin it on a young sampling. My guidance is avoid it and leave it to a specialist
