Pollarding (tree pruning) – a rare and precision tree lopping & tree removal Latham technique
First understand what this method is as there are countless types of negative tree pruning called pollarding (tree pruning), which is merely not the case, they are topping or tree lopping and covered later.
Likewise it is essential you understand the varieties that it uses as well, not all trees can take it. Typically the varieties are deciduous (drop leaves for wintertime) and due to the fact that pollarding (tree pruning) gets rid of all growth it’s good to have a varieties that at the very least has actually become familiar with being defoliated or the tree lopping. These deciduous trees store energy for the spring burst of fallen leaves and fires so they are better able to recover from a 100% prune. A few of the suitable varieties are willow, lime, ash, field maple, holly, hornbeam, oak, plane and beech. See something familiar? You don’t grow those up right here! We remain in a subtropical setting not temperate.
Pollarding (tree pruning) is likewise commenced on young trees, it’s not what you do to a mature tree. It’s a common method to begin pollarding (tree pruning) at stem sizes of 75mm to 100mm.
Pollarding (tree pruning) is the removal of all stems back to their factor of origin, 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 need to have this repeated yearly or 2. The original reason for this pruning was to maintain a routine supply of wood and fodder yearly from the very same trees and to likewise consist of the dimension and form of trees. Properly done to the right varieties does not seem to lower the lifespan supplying it began at an early age.
The pollard heads are very difficult (woundwood) and likewise loaded with energy as a storage factor simply near the injury for protection and to provide new growth. Degeneration seldom breakthroughs much past the pollard head.

Some people attempt to practice this on their Crepe Myrtles yet they don’t have the method right nor do they generally begin it on a young sampling. My suggestions is avoid it and leave it to a professional
