Pollarding (tree pruning) – an uncommon and accuracy tree lopping & tree removal Birnam technique
Initially recognize what this technique is as there are various kinds of poor tree pruning called pollarding (tree pruning), which is simply not the instance, they are covering or tree lopping and covered later on.
Additionally it is very important you recognize the types that it uses too, not all trees can take it. Typically the types are deciduous (decrease leaves for wintertime) and because pollarding (tree pruning) eliminates all growth it’s excellent to have a species that at the very least has ended up being accustomed to being defoliated or the tree lopping. These deciduous trees store power for the springtime burst of leaves and fires so they are better able to recuperate from a 100% trim. Several of the ideal types are willow, lime, ash, area maple, holly, hornbeam, oak, plane and beech. See something familiar? You do not expand those up here! We‘re in a subtropical environment not temperate.
Pollarding (tree pruning) is also started on young trees, it’s not what you do to a mature tree. It’s a typical technique 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 expand from the pollard head. The trees need to have this repeated every year or two. The original reason for this pruning was to keep a normal supply of wood and fodder yearly from the very same trees and to also consist of the dimension and type of trees. Appropriately done to the appropriate types doesn’t seem to reduce the life expectancy giving it began at an early age.
The pollard heads are extremely tough (woundwood) and also filled with power as a storage space point simply near the wound for protection and to provide new growth. Degeneration seldom breakthroughs a lot 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 the real world was some 20 years back in Adelaide, it was a London Airplane tree. Some people try to exercise this on their Crepe Myrtles yet they do not have the method right neither do they generally begin it on a young sampling. My advice is keep clear of it and leave it to an expert
