Pollarding (tree pruning) – an unusual and accuracy tree lopping & tree removal technique
Initially understand what this practice is as there are numerous kinds of bad tree pruning called pollarding (tree pruning), which is just not the case, they are topping or tree lopping and covered later on.
Additionally it is very important you understand the species that it uses as well, not all trees can take it. Usually the species are deciduous (drop leaves for winter) and due to the fact that pollarding (tree pruning) eliminates all development it’s excellent to have a varieties that at the very least has actually come to be accustomed to being defoliated or the tree lopping. These deciduous trees keep power for the spring ruptured of leaves and shoots so they are much better able to recover from a 100% trim. Several of the suitable species are willow, lime, ash, field maple, holly, hornbeam, oak, airplane and beech. See something acquainted? You do not expand those up below! We remain in a subtropical atmosphere 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 practice to commence pollarding (tree pruning) at stem sizes 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 type of collars or pollard heads, you reduced just outside them. New stems expand from the pollard head. The trees have to have this duplicated each year or more. The original reason for this pruning was to keep a routine supply of timber and straw annually from the very same trees and to also have the dimension and type of trees. Appropriately done to the right species doesn’t appear to lower the life expectancy providing it started at an early age.
The pollard heads are extremely hard (woundwood) and also filled with power as a storage point just near the wound for protection and to supply brand-new development. Decay seldom breakthroughs a lot past the pollard head.
You’ll see some attempts at this yet I can truthfully claim the last time I saw an appropriate pollarded tree in reality was some two decades ago in Adelaide, it was a London Aircraft tree. Some individuals attempt to practice this on their Crepe Myrtles yet they do not have the method right neither do they normally begin it on a young specimen. My guidance is avoid it and leave it to an expert
