Pollarding (tree pruning) – an unusual and precision tree lopping & tree removal Radford approach
Initially recognize what this technique is as there are many types of poor tree pruning called pollarding (tree pruning), which is merely not the situation, they are topping or tree lopping and covered later on.
Additionally it is essential you recognize the species that it uses as well, not all trees can take it. Generally the species are deciduous (decrease leaves for winter season) and due to the fact that pollarding (tree pruning) removes all growth it’s great to have a species that at the very least has ended up being familiar with being defoliated or the tree lopping. These deciduous trees keep energy for the springtime ruptured of leaves and fires so they are much better able to recover from a 100% prune. Some of the suitable species are willow, lime, ash, area maple, holly, hornbeam, oak, aircraft and beech. See something acquainted? You don’t grow those up here! We‘re in a subtropical atmosphere not temperate.
Pollarding (tree pruning) is additionally 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 cut off any kind of collars or pollard heads, you cut simply outside them. New stems grow from the pollard head. The trees need to have this repeated every year or more. The original reason for this pruning was to keep a normal supply of wood and straw each year from the exact same trees and to additionally include the dimension and form of trees. Correctly done to the best species doesn’t appear to decrease the lifespan supplying it started at a very early age.
The pollard heads are extremely hard (woundwood) and additionally filled with energy as a storage space point simply near the wound for support and to provide new growth. Degeneration hardly ever advancements a lot past the pollard head.

Some individuals try to exercise this on their Crepe Myrtles but they don’t have the method right neither do they normally begin it on a young specimen. My advice is avoid it and leave it to a specialist
