Pollarding (tree pruning) – an uncommon and precision tree lopping & tree removal Monash approach
First understand what this practice is as there are numerous forms of bad tree pruning called pollarding (tree pruning), which is just not the case, they are covering or tree lopping and covered later.
Also it‘s important you understand the varieties that it uses as well, not all trees can take it. Generally the varieties are deciduous (drop leaves for winter) and due to the fact that pollarding (tree pruning) gets rid of all development it’s good to have a species that a minimum of has actually come to be familiar with being defoliated or the tree lopping. These deciduous trees store energy for the spring burst of fallen leaves and shoots so they are better able to recover from a 100% trim. Some of the ideal varieties are willow, lime, ash, field maple, holly, hornbeam, oak, airplane and beech. See something familiar? You do not grow those up below! We‘re in a subtropical setting not temperate.
Pollarding (tree pruning) is additionally begun on young trees, it’s not what you do to a fully grown tree. It’s a common 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 factor 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 have to have this repeated annually or two. The original factor for this pruning was to keep a routine supply of wood and straw every year from the same trees and to additionally have the dimension and form of trees. Correctly done to the best varieties does not appear to decrease the lifespan supplying it began at an early age.
The pollard heads are extremely hard (woundwood) and additionally loaded with energy as a storage factor simply near the wound for defence and to provide new development. Decay seldom developments a lot past the pollard head.
You’ll see some attempts at this but I can honestly say the last time I saw a correct pollarded tree in real life was some 20 years back in Adelaide, it was a London Plane tree. Some people try to practice this on their Crepe Myrtles but they do not have the technique right nor do they usually begin it on a young specimen. My recommendations is avoid it and leave it to a specialist
